NEW DELHI- ISRO received the Crew Module structure simulated assembly for the Integrated Air-Drop Test (IADT) meant for validating the sequence and performance of parachute systems in the Gaganyaan mission. The module was designed by Human Space Flight Centre (HSFC), ISRO and the hardware has been realized by Shri Venkateswara Aerospace Pvt. Ltd., Hyderabad.
