India's ambitious space program has set its sights on launching the first module of the Bharatiya Antariksh Station by 2028, marking a significant milestone in the country's space research and exploration journey. This endeavour is part of the revised Gaganyaan program, approved by the Union Cabinet, with a total funding of ₹20,193 crore. The program aims to enhance India's capabilities in microgravity research and foster innovation, paving the way for a crewed moon mission by 2040. The Bharatiya Antariksh Station is expected to be fully operational by 2035, further solidifying India's presence in space research.
