00:00With all of you, at the Global Space Exploration Conference 2025,

00:09space is not just a destination, it is a declaration of curiosity, courage, and collective progress.

00:24India's space journey reflects this spirit.

00:34From launching a small rocket in 1963 to becoming the first nation to land near the south pole of moon,

00:49our journey has been remarkable.

00:54Our rockets carry more than payloads.

01:01They carry the dreams of 1.4 billion Indians.

01:08India's achievements are significant scientific milestones.

01:14Beyond that, they are proof that the human spirit can defy gravity.

01:25India made history by reaching Mars on its first attempt in 2014.

01:34Chandrayaan 1 helped discover water on the moon.

01:43Chandrayaan 2 gave us the highest resolution images of the moon.

01:51Chandrayaan 3 increased our understanding of the lunar south pole.

01:59We built cryogenic engines in a record time.

02:04We launched 100 satellites in a single mission.

02:11We have launched over 400 satellites for 34 nations on our launch vehicles.

02:22This year, we docked two satellites in space, a major step forward.

02:32Friends, India's space journey is not about racing others.

02:40It is about reaching higher together.

02:44Together, we share a common goal to explore space for the good of humanity.

02:56Today, we launched a satellite for the South Asian nations.

03:02Now, the G20 satellite mission announced during our presidency will be a gift to the global south.

03:13We continue to march ahead with renewed confidence, pushing the boundaries of scientific exploration.

03:24Our first human space flight mission, Gaganyan, highlights our nation's rising aspirations.

03:36In coming weeks, an Indian astronaut will travel to space as part of a joint ISRO-NASA mission to the international space stations.

03:53By 2035, the Bharatiya Antirik Station will open new frontiers in research and global cooperation.

04:07By 2040, an Indian's footprints will be on the moon.

04:19Friends, for India, space is about exploration as well as about empowerment.

04:32It empowers governance, enhances livelihoods, and inspires generations.

04:43From fisherman alerts to Gati Shakti platform, from railway safety to weather forecasting.

04:55Our satellites look out for the welfare of every Indian.

05:03We have opened our space sector to startups, entrepreneurs, and young minds.

05:11Today, India has over 250 space startups.

05:18They are contributing to cutting edge advancements in satellite technology.

05:26Propulsion systems, imaging, and much more.

05:32And you know, it is even more inspiring that many of our missions are being led by women scientists.

05:44Friends, India's space vision is grounded in the ancient wisdom of Vasudhaev Kutum Kam.

05:53That is, the world is one family.

05:56We strive not just for our own growth, but to enrich global knowledge, address common challenges, and inspire future generations.
