What Is The Status of ISRO's Next Generation Launch Vehicle (NGLV) Program?​


ISRO_NGLV_Rocket.jpg


The status of ISRO's Next Generation Launch Vehicle (NGLV) program is currently progressing positively, following the Indian Cabinet's approval for its development with a budget of ₹8,239 crore. This initiative represents a significant advancement in India's space capabilities, as the NGLV is designed to replace existing launch vehicles like the PSLV and GSLV.


The NGLV aims to provide three times the payload capacity of the current LVM3 rocket while maintaining costs at 1.5 times more than existing vehicles. It is expected to handle up to 30 tons to Low Earth Orbit (LEO), significantly enhancing India's launch capabilities.

A major aspect of the NGLV is its partially reusable design, which is intended to lower launch costs and improve efficiency in accessing space. The vehicle will incorporate advanced technologies, including green propulsion systems and modular designs for quicker production and turnaround.

The project is set for completion in 96 months (8 years), with three developmental flights planned to demonstrate its capabilities. The first flight is tentatively scheduled for 2031.

The NGLV is crucial for supporting India's ambitions in space exploration, including plans for a Bharatiya Antariksh Station (Indian Space Station) and a crewed lunar landing by 2040. Its development involves significant participation from the Indian industry, ensuring a collaborative approach to building a robust space ecosystem.

The NGLV program marks a pivotal step in enhancing India's position in the global space industry and achieving self-reliance in advanced launch capabilities.

One must give credit where credit is due. India is decades ahead of Iran in its space program.

It’s a hard fact for Iran to swallow.

And just for laughs, Pakistan doesn’t even have a space program……😝

ISRO' s NGLV carries 30 tons to LEO, 12 to 15 tons to GEO. New vehicle will carry 75000 k.g. to LEO. Now India is taking a giant leap in weight carrying as well. The rockets shall be reusable subsequently.

Haan, here's one thing which all of us can genuinely be proud of.

Iran have the brain power, pretty sure, but sanctionds ne game kharab kar dia.

Pak SPARCO is superfuss, budgetary constraints bhi hain, but they been tying up with iron bro lately, dipping their toes into manned space.

and until baniya Indians don't ease up on the military threat ka pressure, civvie space program toh bhool hi jao, we's keeping you backwards.

How India Conquered Space: From Bicycles to the Moon, Mars & Beyond



Indian space program got a huge boost after USSR's collapse and Yeltsin transferring critical infra and start-up and then the EU consortium helped India a lot over the last quarter century, but credit must go where its due. Now Indian home grown space capability is significant and in the top 5 of the planet in rankings. There is no denying this anymore.

India is far ahead in costing, Planetary exploration, earth observation, very good in communication and navigation a lacking in weight lifting and man mission. Weight lifting is an area which is being addressed now. Soon India shall be just behind US in weight lifting with its very powerful rocket with 75000 K.G. LEO capability. ISRO is now launching 6500 k.g US satellite in space. it is a boost of 62.5% in GSLV declared GEO capability.
