In this editorial episode, Mr. Sujit Nair celebrates India's and ISRO's accomplishments in the successful landing of the Chandrayaan-3 Moon Mission. Mr. Nair fondly remembers the significant contributions made by our nation's leaders and scientists from 1947 to 2023. Following India's independence in 1947, visionary politicians and scientists recognized the importance of space and rocket technology for the country's progress.
The first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, saw great potential in rocket science and grasped the necessity of establishing a robust space policy. This was particularly relevant for a vast and developing nation like India. Nehru emphasized the significance of science and technology in the nation's growth.
When the USSR launched the first artificial earth satellite, Sputnik, people began to understand the potential of satellites. In response, Nehru placed space research under the jurisdiction of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) in 1961. The DAE, headed by the eminent nuclear scientist Homi J Bhabha, was founded for this purpose.
Bhabha, alongside another brilliant scientist, Vikram Sarabhai, born on August 12, 1919, established the Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR) in February 1962. Sarabhai assumed the role of Chairman, and under his leadership, INCOSPAR coordinated space research activities. The primary objective of INCOSPAR was to formulate India's space program, taking over the responsibilities previously held by the DAE.
Dr. Kalam was a part of the Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR) and worked closely with Vikram Sarabhai, a renowned space scientist. The committee assumed the responsibilities of the Department of Atomic Energy in the field of space science and research.
INCOSPAR made the crucial decision to establish the Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station (TERLS) at Thumba, located at the southern tip of India.
Dr. Kalam devoted over a decade of hard work as the project director for the development of India's indigenous Satellite Launch Vehicle (SLV) at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). In 1980, under his leadership, India successfully deployed the Rohini satellite into near-earth orbit using the SLV-III, a milestone that made India a member of the exclusive space community.
From the 1970s to the 1990s, Dr. Kalam played a pivotal role in the development of projects such as the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) and SLV-III, both of which achieved success. During the 1970s, he also led efforts to develop ballistic missiles based on the technology derived from the SLV program.
