About Vikram Sarabhai Space Center :
The Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC) is one of the primary facilities of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), focused on the design and development of space vehicles and rockets. Named after Dr. Vikram Sarabhai, the founder of the Indian space program, it is located in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. Established in the 1960s, VSSC plays a critical role in the development of India’s satellite launch vehicles, including the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) and the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV).
Key functions of VSSC include:
- Research and development of launch vehicle technology
- Propulsion, aerodynamics, avionics, and structural analysis for space missions
- Development of solid, liquid, and cryogenic propulsion systems
- Collaboration with other centers and organizations for satellite launches
VSSC has been instrumental in ISRO’s major missions, including Chandrayaan (India’s lunar exploration mission) and Mangalyaan (the Mars Orbiter Mission). The center continues to innovate in space technology, aiming to make India a global leader in space exploration.
