India’s ambitious space plans: Missions to Moon, Mars and Venus

Reaching for the stars is becoming an everyday affair at India’s space agency. Having visited the Moon and Mars with orbital missions, eyes are set on a mission to Venus and a sample return from the Moon. Human space flight — to fly an Indian citizen on an Indian rocket from Indian soil where the countdown will also be by India — is also taking shape fast. India’s space journey reached new heights with the successful landing of Chandrayaan-3 nearer the Moon’s South Pole on Aug. 23, 2023, making India the first country to achieve this feat.
