 Acknowledgement
I would like to express my special thanks of gratitude to my
teacher Leena P.K. for her wonderful guidance & support
throughout this project.

As well as I’d like to thank our school principal Mrs Anupama

Singh who gave me the excellent opportunity to do this wonderful
project.

Finally, I also wish to thank my parents & friends for the

encouragement, guidance and support which helped me to
complete my project in the limited time frame.
 Political History
Lal Bahadur Shastri, the late prime minister of India, was poisoned on
January 11, 1966, while he was in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan,
to sign the world peace treaty. This was stowed away from the world
as India was in a ceasefire and it would be extremely offending to tell
that in the truce of the Head of the state was Killed.

Likewise, Everybody on the planet believes that Homi J. Bhabha

passed on because of Plane Accident Yet this isn't true. Homi J.
Bhabha was carrying a small case containing the paperwork for India's
first nuclear program. There was a bomb inside the concise case which
detonated mid air making the plane accident. This was likewise
stowed away from the world because of the ceasefire and it would be
exceptionally offending to tell the world that one of the best researcher
of India has been Killed
 Basic History
Present day space research in India can be followed to the 1920s, when researcher S. K. Mitra led a progression of examinations sounding the
ionosphere through ground-based radio in Kolkata. Later, Indian scientists like C.V. Raman and Meghnad Saha made contributions to space
science principles. After 1945, significant advancements were made in facilitated space research in India by two researchers: Homi Bhabha, who
founded the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in 1945, and Vikram Sarabhai, who established the Physical Research Laboratory in
Ahmedabad. Beginning analyses in space sciences incorporated the investigation of astronomical radiation, high-height and airborne testing,
profound underground trial and error at the Kolar mines — one of the most profound mining destinations on the planet — and investigations of the
upper environment. These studies were carried out independently, at universities, and in research labs.

Bhabha served as secretary of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), which was established in 1950 and funded space research across India.
[14] During this time, tests progressed forward with parts of meteorology and the World's attractive field, a point that had been concentrated on in
India since the foundation of the Colaba Observatory in 1823. In 1954, the Aryabhatta Exploration Foundation of Observational Sciences (ARIES)
was laid out in the lower regions of the Himalayas. The Rangpur Observatory was set up in 1957 at Osmania College, Hyderabad. The Indian
government further supported space exploration. The Soviet Union's 1957 launch of Sputnik 1 made it possible for the rest of the world to launch a
spacecraft.

On Dr. Vikram Sarabhai's suggestion, Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru established the Indian National Committee for Space Research
(INCOSPAR) in 1962. At first, there was no separate ministry for the space program, and all INCOSPAR activities pertaining to space technology
continued to operate within the DAE. IOFS officials were drawn from the Indian Arms Processing plants to tackle their insight into charges and
high level light materials used to assemble rockets. H.G.S. Murthy, an IOFS official, was delegated the primary overseer of the Thumba Central
Rocket Sending off Station, where sounding rockets were terminated, denoting the beginning of upper climatic exploration in India. A native series
of sounding rockets named Rohini was hence evolved and begun going through dispatches from 1967 onwards. Waman Dattatreya Patwardhan,
another IOFS official, fostered the charge for the rockets.
Mission Name
Misson History
Start Date End Date Details
Chandrayaan - 1 22 October 2008 28 August 2009 The mission included a lunar orbiter and an impactor. The
mission was a major boost to India's space program, as
India researched and developed its own technology in
order to explore the Moon. The vehicle was successfully
inserted into lunar orbit on 8 November 2008.
