🚨 Gaganyaan IADT-02 Completed!! ISRO has successfully conducted the 2nd Integrated Air-Drop Test (IADT) of Gaganyaan on today morning after the first one in August 2025! 🔥 The aim of this test was to validate the parachutes and other recovery systems on board Gaganyaan that are necessary for safely landing the Crew Module on Earth upon its return from orbit. In this test, the Crew Module, weighing in at 5.7 tons, was lifted by a Chinook aircraft and dropped from an altitude of 3 km over the Bay of Bengal near the Sriharikota coast. The Crew Module subsequently slowed itself down autonomously using a series of drogue and main parachutes, followed by a soft splashdown in the sea.

#WATCH | Thiruvananthapuram | On ISRO successfully performing docking of satellites as part of SpaDeX Mission, former ISRO Scientist and Padma Bhushan Nambi Narayanan says, "My reaction is happiness. It is something we all have been dreaming of for years. It is something which has been achieved by only three nations- China, the US and Russia- and now we are the fourth nation to do this. It was a pre-requirement for future missions of ISRO and Gaganyaan mission. In every future mission, we will need to do docking for outer space missions."
