The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), established in 1969, is India's national space agency. It has achieved significant milestones, including launching India's first satellite Aryabhata in 1975 and independently launching satellites. ISRO's successful missions include Chandrayaan-1 discovering lunar water, the cost-effective Mars mission Mangalyaan, and the historic Chandrayaan-3 landing on the Moon's South Pole. Currently, ISRO is developing the Gaganyaan manned space mission, solidifying India's position as a global space power.
