Have you ever harboured dreams of floating in the
limitless galaxy? ISRO Chairman Somanath S. recently guided youngsters on how
to pursue this dream in an Instagram live session.
Somanath said that it was integral to be a
competent fighter pilot in order to realise this dream, and astronauts were
required to be both mentally and physically fit. He also said that a science
background with expertise in space technology was also a very important
competence for aspiring astronauts.
He also explained the Pushpak’s significance as a
wind-reusable rocket. ISRO is developing this rocket to demonstrate a
fully-reusable launch vehicle, and to use it as a platform for deploying longer
scientific missions on the orbit.
So, if you have any questions around joining ISRO,
make sure you tune into this video right away.
