ISRO chief said- Will send Indian to moon by 2040: Immense potential in space tourism; A space station needs to be built before a moon mission

President of Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) Dr. S. Somnath said – Our goal is to send an Indian to the moon by 2040. For this we need to build a space station, because there must be an intermediate to send humans to the moon.

 For this, microgravity research and many special space mission goals have to be fulfilled.

He said that currently we are in the learning phase and our learning journey continues unabated. The ISRO chief said this at the convocation ceremony organized at Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS) Pilani Institute in Jhunjhunu district on Sunday.
Space tourism in India has immense potential
He said- American businessman Elon Musk is planning to send humans to the moon and establish a society on Mars. His plan is to build a colony there (Mars) for millions of people and people will be able to go there with one ticket.

The ISRO chief said- We have also outlined the programs for the future during the next 5 to 60 years. The government has also announced a budget of 30 thousand crore rupees for this.

 The present time is a major historical moment in the history of the space program.

S Somnath told the students – The entire space mechanism is changing. Changes in space science have to be understood. 

Accessing space and learning about its laws is not as difficult as it used to be. When the Americans started thinking about a lunar mission, they had to invest heavily in the space program.

They had to invest about 20-30 percent of their national wealth, so that they could develop science capacity as it is today. Now access to space has become very easy. 

Nowadays anyone can launch a satellite. This can also be done in universities and institutes and the cost of launching satellites has come down so much that today there are about 20 thousand satellites in space. 

More than 50 thousand satellites are providing minimum-latency telecommunication services and Internet services, which is a very staggering figure indeed
