ISRO Clears Fifth Parachute Airdrop Test for Gaganyaan Crew Module
The Indian Space Research Organisation has successfully completed a key qualification test for the main parachute system of its Gaganyaan crew module. The test was designed to validate the parachute's structural integrity under maximum expected load conditions. A simulated assembly was dropped from an aircraft to evaluate the system's real-world performance. This was the fifth integrated main parachute airdrop test conducted as part of the Gaganyaan mission. The positive outcome boosts confidence in the parachute system ahead of the mission's upcoming uncrewed flight.
