In rece mohs, India will make decisive first-ever trips to space. The Gaganyaan and Viometra missions are the most importa eves in the agenda of the Ministry of Science and Technology of India. “Gaganian” is the name of the first human journey in the history of Indian air and space, which will happen soon in 2025. But the more ieresting news is Viometra's space travel. India plans to send a humanoid astronaut robot called Vyomitra to space on a special mission before Gaganya's importa trip.
The female astronaut robot “Vyomitra” will be se to space to perform a mission before the “Gaganian” space mission, which will be India's first human space flight. India's Minister of Science and Technology, Jitendra Singh, stated this news in an ierview with Delhi media on Sunday.
