ISRO unveils model of Bharatiya Antariksh Station in Delhi

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) unveiled the model of the Bharatiya Antariksh Station (BAS) in Delhi on the occasion of National Space Day.

The ISRO aims to launch the first module of the project by 2028 and the full station is expected to become operational by 2035. The BAS is set to be a significant platform for indigenous research, including microgravity studies and testing technologies for long-duration human space missions.

India's journey to



establish its own orbital laboratory marks a major leap in its space program and reinforces its position as a global leader in space exploration.

Earlier today, ISRO chief V Narayanan emphasised that by the year 2035, India will establish the "Bharatiya Antariksh Station" whose first module will be lifted off in the year 2035.

He stated that India will land on the moon by the year 2040 which will make India's space program the top other than any country in the world.
