Moving towards India’s first human space flight mission, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has successfully tested the first integrated air drop parachute (IADT-01) on Sunday (August 24, 2025). Designed for Gaganyaan, this parachute is a system to control the speed of the spacecraft.

These tests have been done to return to the safe Earth of passengers on space flight. The Indian Air Force, Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO), Indian Navy and Indian Coast Guard were present during the test, which shows the unity of all for this mission.

Crew module’s re -secure return test

Let us know that this parachute system is very important for a re -return of crew module after re -entry into the atmosphere. During the trial, a mock module was released from the aircraft and safely lowered with the help of a newly developed parachute assembly, which led to the success of the test.

According to ISRO officials, the purpose of IADT-01 was to check whether the entire process of opening the parachute is working correctly, including its results, parachute opening process and then opening the main large parachute. This test ensured whether the parachute is reduced properly before landing. This test assured ISRO that we are getting closer to the crew flight.

India’s first attempt in testing human campaigns

India’s Gaganyaan Mission will be launched in December 2025, which will be India’s first attempt in testing human operations in the lower orbit of the Earth. After this, this manned mission to be launched in 2028, India will become the fourth country to achieve space flight capacity with independent crew.

Designed for Gaganyaan, this parachute is designed to carry a three -member crew in a class of about 400 km and then safely to Earth. According to officials, this successful test strengthens the safety of astronauts, which is the biggest priority of the mission.

IADT-01 Mission India’s big achievement

He further stated that the upcoming tests and parachutes will include testing the testing of removing the rocket from the launchpad and the practice of bringing the spacecraft back from the seas to ensure the complete preparation of the mission. The whole world is eyeing India’s space mission and the IADT-01 mission will be considered a major achievement of India.
