00:00 In a significant development for India's Gaganyaan mission, the Union Minister of State

00:07 for Space, Chitendra Singh has announced that the trials for the Gaganyaan missions by the

00:12 Indian Space Research Organisation are set to begin in late October.

00:17 Additionally, he disclosed that the second phase of this mission would include deploying

00:22 Vyometra, a humanoid robot, into space.

00:26 Let's discuss the Gaganyaan mission and the role of Vyometra in it.

00:31 Vyometra, derived from the Sanskrit words vyoma, signifying space, and mitra, signifying

00:38 friend, will serve as a prototype for the Gaganyaan mission.

00:42 This semi-humanoid creation was introduced during the inaugural session of the 2021 event

00:48 titled Human Spaceflight and Exploration, Current Challenges and Future Trends.

00:54 Vyometra possesses the ability to oversee module parameters, raise alarms, and carry

01:00 out life support operations.

01:02 Its functions encompass operating switch panels and acting as a companion to astronauts, including

01:08 engaging in conversations, recognising them, and addressing their queries.

01:13 This semi-humanoid is engineered to replicate human functions in the space setting and interact

01:18 with the life support system.

01:20 The adorable robot is programmed to communicate in both Hindi and English.

01:25 The Gaganyaan mission seeks to showcase India's proficiency in human spaceflight.

01:31 This mission entails sending a three-member crew into orbit, reaching an altitude of 400

01:38 km for a three-day duration.

01:40 The mission's conclusion will involve the safe return of the crew to Earth with a landing

01:46 in the water of the Indian Sea.

01:48 The project is taking a comprehensive approach using India's own expertise, industrial experience,

01:55 academic resources, and international technology.

01:58 Key factors for Gaganyaan's mission success include developing critical technologies like

02:04 a safe launch vehicle, a life support system for the crew, emergency escape plans, and

02:09 crew management protocols for training, recovery, and rehabilitation.

02:14 To ensure the utmost safety and reliability of all systems, ISRO has planned a series

02:21 of precursor missions designed to validate the technology preparedness before embarking

02:27 on the actual human spaceflight mission.

02:29 These precursor missions include the Integrated Air Drop Test (IADT), the Pad Abort Test (PAT),

02:38 and Test Vehicles (TV) flights.

02:40 In short, the Gaganyaan mission, a significant ISRO achievement, makes a new era for India's

02:46 human spaceflight.

02:47 Vayu Mitra, our pioneering semi-humanoid companion, symbolizes years of dedication,

02:54 national expertise, and international collaboration.

02:57 A three-member crew will venture into space showcasing India's power.

03:03 We anticipate their safe return to Earth.
