The document discusses the history and achievements of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). It summarizes that ISRO was established in 1969, growing out of the Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR) formed in 1962 under Dr. Vikram Sarabhai. Key figures in ISRO's development include Dr. Vikram Sarabhai, considered the father of India's space program, and Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam who worked on early satellite launch projects. More recently, ISRO has had success with the Mars Orbiter Mission, launching over 100 satellites at once, and developing its largest rocket yet.
