IndiaTimes Sunday, 24 August 2025 ()
ISRO successfully conducted the first integrated air-drop test (IADT-01) at Sriharikota, validating the parachute system for the Gaganyaan mission's crew module recovery. The test, involving multiple parachutes, aimed to ensure safe deceleration and splashdown. Following earlier helicopter-related concerns, the successful IADT-01 paves the way for future tests and uncrewed Gaganyaan missions.
