I
worked as a Senior Manager in ARDC (Aircraft Research and Design
Centre) in Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. I wish to be picked or
shortlisted with suitable training as Astronaut before 2022. Please let
me know the procedure for applying for the same.
As
far ISROβs road map is concerned it has planned to put an Indian into
space by late 2021 or by early 2022 with the mission titled βGaganyaanβ.
An officer with the Defense Force would have been picked or shortlisted
already(I presume) and suitable training would be given to make him an
Astronaut before 2022.
He would fly in a low earth orbit and return safely.
So
there is no viewpoint as far as now, in ISROβs work-plan to send a man
to moon. hopefully if the βGaganyaanβ Mission hits gold ISRO would soon
chalk out its plan to set foot on MOON.

Gaganyaan to be next turning point in space missions: Ex-ISRO Chief
Indiaβs space endeavour is ranked only next to the efforts of USA, Russia, European Space Agency (ESA), Japan and China.

Guwahati: The lunar lander of Chandrayaan-2 will be a landmark soon and
Gaganyaan, the spacecraft that will carry astronauts in earth orbit,
would be the next turning point, Advisor Department of Space/ISRO K
Radhakrishnan said on Wednesday.
βSelf-reliance has been our obsession, not just an objective. That is
evident from our strides in satellite technology and launcher
technology. Indiaβs space industry is growing in value chain. Capacity
building in academia has been a priority to foster frontline research.
Chandrayaan-1 and Mangalyaan were Indiaβs inflection points on
convergence of space science, technology, engineering and mathematics
for precise navigation for deep space missions,β the former ISRO chief
said in his address at the 21st convocation of Indian Institute of
Technology, Guwahati.
He said Indiaβs space endeavour is ranked only next to the efforts of
USA, Russia, European Space Agency (ESA), Japan and China. According to
Radhakrishnan, Chandrayaan-2 will be a role model for reaching the
benefits of this frontline technology for economic growth, national
development and environmental sustainability.
βThe hallmark of Indian space programme is to help humankind through
earth-oriented satellites for communication, remote sensing and
navigation along with an effective institutional tie up with all
stakeholders,β he said. βThe national challenge is how well we
channelise the inventive power of our demographic dividend in the
frontiers of science and inter-disciplinary team-efforts on relevant and
substantial problems besides inspiring and facilitating them to
generate scientific and technical knowledge that would manifest as
cost-effective and reliable processes, products and services with
utility in the domestic and global market place.β
He said renewed interest for engagement in science is quite discernible
across the length and breadth of the country. βWe also have a sterling
political leadership, a renewed industrial urge, an enabling ambience
and a willto-do-it by all stakeholders for a leap forward.β He said it
is βstartlingβ that India continues to be a major importer of capital
goods, aircraft, modern transport systems, electronic components and
products, computers, biomedical equipment as well as vital systems for
strategic sector.
I wish to be part of the mission. Please let me know the procedure to apply for the mission.
