The Indian Space Program has goals of using space technology to benefit socioeconomic development in India rather than demonstrate military might. Key ongoing projects include satellites for earth observation, communications, navigation, space science, and developing launch vehicles. Future plans include heavier payload launchers, reusable rockets, and potential manned missions. International cooperation is also emphasized.

2. " ….. we must be second to none in the application of advanced technologies to the real problems of man and society, which we find in our country. … - Dr. Vikram A. Sarabhai (1960s) Indian Space Program is very different. Very deeply rooted to the society SPACE POLICY To assure its development, India views science and space technology as a crucial apparatus for its socioeconomic development - not a display of its might

19. GSAT-4 is envisaged as a technology demonstrator. The communication payload consists of multi-beam Ka-band bent pipe and regenerative transponder and navigation payload in C-band, L1 and L5 bands . Forthcoming Satellites – INSAT/GSAT Series

20. GSAT-5 / INSAT-4D is a C-band and Extended C-band satellite, carrying 18 transponders. Of these, 12 transponders will operate in the Normal C-band with wider coverage in uplink and downlink to cover Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe/Zonal coverage. 6 transponders will operate in Extended C-band and have India coverage. The option of incorporating L-band is under consideration. It will be launched onboard GSLV during end 2010 and positioned at 82 deg E longitude . The primary goal of GSAT-6/INSAT-4E which is a Multimedia mobile S-band satellite is to cater to the consumer requirements of providing entertainment and information services to vehicles through Digital Multimedia consoles and to the Multimedia Mobile Phones. The spacecraft will be positioned at 83 degree East longitude with a mission life of 12 years. The satellite is planned to be launched during 2010 by GSLV. GSAT-7/INSAT-4F is proposed as a multi-band satellite carrying payloads in UHF, S-band, C-band and Ku-band Forthcoming Satellites – INSAT/GSAT Series

21. GSAT-8/INSAT-4G is proposed as a Ku-band satellite carrying 24 transponders similar to that of INSAT-4A and INSAT-4B. It will also carry the second GPS Aided Geo Augmented Navigation (GAGAN) payload. The satellite is expected to be launched during 2010 and positioned at 55 degree E longitude. Forthcoming Satellites – INSAT/GSAT Series ASTROSAT is a multi-wavelength space borne astronomy satellite to be launched during 2009-10. This will be the first dedicated Indian astronomy mission. ASTROSAT has wide spectral coverage extending over visible, UV, soft X ray and hard X ray regions. This spacecraft would enable observations on the celestial bodies in both X-ray and UV spectral bands simultaneously. The scientific payloads cover the Visible (3500-6000 Å), UV (1300-3000 Å), soft and hard X-ray regimes (0.5-8 keV; 3-80 keV). Forthcoming Satellites – Space Science Missions

22. Space Capsule Recovery Experiment (SRE-II) The main objective of SRE II is to realize a fully recoverable capsule and provide a platform to conduct microgravity experiments on Micro-biology, Agriculture, Powder Metallurgy, etc. Aditya-1 The First Indian space based Solar Coronagraph to study solar Corona in visible and near IR bands . Launch of the Aditya mission is planned during the next high solar activity period ~ 2012 YOUTHSAT The second satellite in the micro satellite series proposed is YOUTHSAT which will carry payloads of scientific interest with participation of youths from Universities at graduate, post graduate and research scholar level. The micro satellite bus is planned and designed to carry different kinds of payloads like earth imaging, atmospheric applications, weather monitoring, stellar observations, scientific experiments etc. Forthcoming Satellites – Space Science Missions

23. Satellite Navigation GAGAN : Indigenous Satellite-Based Regional GPS Augmentation System also known as Space-Based Augmentation System (SBAS) as part of the Satellite-Based Communications, Navigation and Surveillance (CNS)/Air Traffic Management (ATM) plan for civil aviation. GPS Aided GEO Augmented Navigation The first navigation payload is being fabricated and it is proposed to be flown on GSAT-4. Two more payloads will be subsequently flown, one each on two geostationary satellites GSAT-8 and GSAT-12.

25. Launch Vehicle / Forthcoming Launches GSLV-Mk III GSLV-Mk III is envisaged to launch four tonne satellite into geosynchronous transfer orbit. GSLV-Mk III is a three-stage vehicle with a 110 tonne core liquid propellant stage (L-110) and a strap-on stage with two solid propellant motors, each with 200 tonne propellant (S-200). The upper stage will be cryogenic with a propellant loading of 25 tonne (C-25). GSLV Mk-III will have a lift-off weight of about 629 tonne and will be 42.4 m tall. The payload fairing will have a diameter of 5 metre and a payload volume of 100 cubic metre.
