NEW DELHI; P.G.NARAYANAN, April 20, 2007 Chairman Department- relatedParliamentaryStandinCommitteeon Science & Technology, Environment & Forests. REPORT Indian Space Programmme which began in the early sixties, was initiated primarily for scientific purposes. Since 1969 the management of space research and its utilization for peaceful purposes has been controlled by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). Thereafter, in 1972 the Indian Government set up the Space Commission and entrusted the Department of Space (DOS) with the responsibility for conducting the country's space activities. Since the inception of the space programme, it has proven to be beneficial for both civilian and military purposes. India undertook demonstration of space applications for communication, broadcasting and remote sensing; designing and building experimental satellites-Aryabhata, Bhaskara, APPLE and Rohini and experimental Satellite Launch Vehicles, SLV-3 and ASLV. The successs of those programmes led to an era of operational satellite programmes like INSAT and IRS. The INSAT series of satellites made a major impact on telecommunication scenario in India. The Space technology has allowed the nation to move into the http://10.21.217.2/book2/reports/science/175threport.htm 7/16/2008 175th Report of Committee On Science & Technology, Environment & Forests Page 4 of 22 world of high technology, a place previously occupied only by more advanced nations. 2. The primary objective of the Indian Space Programme is to promote the development and application of space technology and space science for the socio-economic benefit of the nation through establishment of operational space services in a self-reliant manner. The main thrust areas of the programme are: Satellite-based communication for various applications. Satellite-based resources survey and management and environmental monitoring. Meteorological applications Development and operationalisation of indigenous satellites, launch vehicles and associated ground segment for providing these space-based services. 3. To achieve the aforesaid objectives the DOS implements the policies framed by the Space Commission. These are carried out through the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and the Grant-in-aid institutions viz., National Remote Sensing Agency (NRSA), Physical Research Laboratory (PRL), National Atmospheric Research Laboratory (NARL), North-Eastern Space Applications Centre (NE-SAC) and Semi-Conductors Laboratory (SCL). 4. The Secretariat of Department of Space and the Headquarters of ISRO are located in Bangalore. Programme Offices at ISRO Headquarters co-ordinate the overall programmes like satellite communication, Satellite Navigation, earth observation, launch vehicle, space science, space industry development, disaster management support, international co-operation, publications and public relations, budget and economic analysis and human resource development. 5. The major Centres, Units and establishments of ISRO/DOS, responsible for carrying out research and development activities as well as for undertaking various projects and programmes, are given below: (a) Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), Thiruvananthapuram, provides the technology base for the country’s indigenous launch vehicle (rocket) development. (b) Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre (LPSC), with its facilities at Bangalore, Thiruvananthapuram and Mahendragiri, is responsible for development of liquid propulsion and cryogenic propulsion systems for satellite and launch vehicles (c) Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC-SHAR) at Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh, is the launch base. Also, it provides the facilities for processing of solid rocket motors. http://10.21.217.2/book2/reports/science/175threport.htm 7/16/2008 175th Report of Committee On Science & Technology, Environment & Forests Page 5 of 22 (d) ISRO Satellite Centre (ISAC), Bangalore, is entrusted with the prime responsibility for the satellite development. ISRO Radar Development Unit (ISRAD), Bangalore of ISAC has the responsibility to develop the Radar systems for ISRO and other emerging radar systems for national development. (e) The Laboratory for Electro-Optics Systems (LEOS), Bangalore has the responsibility for development and production of electro optical sensors for satellites. (f) Space Applications Centre (SAC), Ahmedabad, carries out research and development in space applications as well as development of application payloads. (g) Development and Educational Communication Unit (DECU), Ahmedabad, is involved in the conception, definition, planning and socio/techno-economic evaluation of development communication programmes. (h) ISRO Telemetry, Tracking & Command Network (ISTRAC), with its ground stations at Bangalore, Sriharikota, Lucknow, Bearslake, Biak (Indonesia), Brunei and Mauritius provides the telemetry, tracking and command support and spacecraft mission management for the Indian remote sensing satellite missions, space science missions and satellite launch vehicle programmes. (i) Master Control Facility (MCF) with its main facility at Hassan, Karnataka and backup facility at Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh has the responsibility for control and operation of INSAT satellites. (j) ISRO Inertial Systems Unit (IISU), Thiruvananthapuram, carries out research and development in the area of inertial systems for satellites and launch vehicles. 6. In addition, a National Natural Resources Management System (NNRMS), with the Department of Space (DOS) as the nodal agency, has been established to ensure optimal utilisation of natural resources using remote sensing data in conjunction with conventional techniques. Under NNRMS, five Regional Remote Sensing Service Centres (RRSSCs) at Bangalore, Dehradun, Jodhpur, Kharagpur and Nagpur have been set up for execution of remote sensing application programmes in the respective regions. 7. In addition to the aforesaid institutions, the following Organisations receiving Grants-in-aid, under the Department of Space: (a) National Remote Sensing Agency (NRSA), Hyderabad, an autonomous institution under the Department of Space, is responsible for acquisition, processing and dissemination of http://10.21.217.2/book2/reports/science/175threport.htm 7/16/2008

  • Another Global History of Science: Making Space for India and China
    BJHS: Themes 1: 115–143, 2016. © British Society for the History of Science 2016. This is an Open Access article, distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution licence (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. doi:10.1017/bjt.2016.4 First published online 22 March 2016 Another global history of science: making space for India and China ASIF SIDDIQI* Abstract. Drawing from recent theoretical insights on the circulation of knowledge, this article, grounded in real-world examples, illustrates the importance of ‘the site’ as an analytical heur- istic for revealing processes, movements and connections illegible within either nation-centred histories or comparative national studies. By investigating place instead of project, the study reframes the birth of modern rocket developments in both China and India as fundamentally intertwined within common global networks of science. I investigate four seemingly discon- nected sites in the US, India, China and Ukraine, each separated by politics but connected and embedded in conduits that enabled the flow of expertise during (and in some cases despite) the Cold War. By doing so, it is possible to reconstruct an exemplar of a kind of global history of science, some of which takes place in China, some in India, and some else- where, but all of it connected. There are no discrete beginnings or endings here, merely points of intervention to take stock of processes in action. Each site produces objects and knowledge that contribute to our understanding of the other sites, furthering the overall narra- tive on Chinese and Indian efforts to formalize a ‘national’ space programme.

    Arts and Philanthropy Art is a universal language where visual expression evokes raw emotions and is thus an effective medium of conveying the very important message of peace “and harmony. Indeed, powerful images of paintings can leave an everlasting impact on peoples’ minds. Unlike words which are spoken, heard and sometimes forgotten, art on canvas stays forever and so does the message it conveys. — Satish Kumar Modi at the Inaugural Ceremony of the UNESCO Global Forum on the ‘Power of Peace’ ”at Bali, Indonesia.
