Chennai: In a year when the Indian space sector is expected to see some revolutionary changes, S.Somanath on Saturday assumed the charge as the Secretary, Department of Science and Chairman, Space Commission<\/a>.
The space industry players are expecting rocket speed in ushering in policies and programmes for the entry of private sector players and also activating their regulator, finalising the foreign direct investment (FDI) norms and passing of the Space Activities Bill and others.
At the same time, he should also manage the interests of about 17,300 employees in Indian Space Research Organisation<\/a> (ISRO<\/a>) while reorienting its focus towards research and development.
The global space market is about $360 billion and is expected to grow to $1 trillion by 2040.
Further, the country's blue chip space project -- Gaganyaan\/human space mission -- has missed its deadlines and the project has to be put back on track.
\"The main challenge before Somanath is to reorient ISRO towards the new vision given by the government. The management of Indian space sector is with ISRO. So the entity has to see how space tech can be leveraged to start a new economic activity, as envisaged by the government, including job creation in the private sector. This will also improve the sector's contribution to the country's gross domestic product (GDP),\" Rakesh Sasibhushan, Chairman, CII National Committee on Space, told IANS.
He said the country spends about $2 billion on the space sector, but the resultant contribution to the GDP is not much.
\"The amount spent on the space programme has not transpired into economic growth. India does not have a robust private sector in space, whereas many other countries that have ventured into this sector have progressed far ahead of India. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said that 'the government has no business to be in business'. Previously ISRO was hesitant to follow that and continued in the same old manner,\" Sasibhushan remarked.
For instance, there is a big dearth of satellite transponder capacity and many of the 800 and odd Indian television channels are using transponders of foreign satellites.
India with 17 communication satellites are providing 292.5 transponders and 25 GBPS of high throughput capacity.
The ISRO makes about four\/five satellites in a year including communication, remote sensing and others which is grossly inadequate considering the potential.
\"Further, commercial satellites were built in a supply driven manner, which hurt the user community,\" Sasibhushan added.
The Indian space agency ISRO is into commercial activity and its policies and procedures are bureaucratic and monopolistic, preventing the entry of other players.
The Central government had announced the deregulation of the space sector in 2020 and it is now 2022 and nothing much has moved in that regard, officials pointed out.
\"Space Activities Bill is fundamental for growing private space activities -- for enabling insurance and global business activities. Also new space policies need to be rolled out immediately along with revised FDI norms,\" Sasibhushan said.
\"The realisation of the uncrewed rocket flight -- part of India's human space mission Gaganyaan -- will be a major boost, a source of inspiration in the hearts of the people. There will be a lot of excitement with two uncrewed rocket launches,\" Dr Chaitanya Giri, Founder, DAWON Advisory & Intelligence told IANS.
He added that the Rs 9,023 crore Gaganyaan has a lot of strategic importance for the country apart from being a scientific achievement mission.
As a part of the space sector reforms, the NewSpace India Ltd (NSIL) in 2022 should decide on the industry player(s) to make the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) or the PSLV rockets.
The NSIL had called for an Expression of Interest for production of PSLV rockets by an industry consortium.
The government is scouting for a head for NSIL.
On the rocket side, Somanath, a rocket specialist has to see the realisation of the small rocket with a long winding name Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) with a capacity to carry 500 kg satellites.
The ISRO should also make progress in the construction of its second rocket port at Kulasekarapattinam in Tamil Nadu.
With the ISRO shifting focus to research and development (R&D), as part of the reform process, the committee that has been set up to recommend the methodology for right-sizing and optimal utilisation of the existing science and technology (S&T) manpower is expected to submit its report.
For the private sector startups making rockets and satellites too, next year is going to be crucial.
Small rocket makers Skyroot Aerospace Private Ltd and Agnikul Cosmos are hoping to fly their vehicles by the end of 2022 while the satellite maker Syzygy Space Technologies Pvt Ltd, commonly known as Pixxel is expected to fly its satellite sometime next year.
\"The year 2022 is an important year as we bring everything together for a launch of Vikram-1 rocket and join the elite of the world in providing launch solutions,\" Pawan Kumar Chandana, CEO and Chief Technology Officer, Skyroot Aerospace, had told IANS.
As a part of opening up the space sector, the Indian government has constituted the Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe) as the sectoral regulator for the private players.
The IN-SPACe will also enable usage of ISRO's facilities for them.
There are over 30 requests from private companies for support from IN-SPACe for their space activities which are expected to be decided next year.
Industry officials expect the IN-SPACe and the sectoral regulations to be as agile as the startups.
\"Somanath is the apt person to drive this change and I have no doubt that he'll take ISRO to new heights,\" Sasibhushan concluded.

钦奈:一年当印度空间部门预计一些革命性的变化,。Somanath周六认为电荷作为秘书,科学和主席太空委员会。
空间业内预计火箭速度在政策和规划引导私营部门的进入玩家同时激活他们的监管者,敲定的外国直接投资(FDI)规范和通过法案和其他空间的活动。
与此同时,他也应该管理大约17300名员工的利益印度空间研究组织(ISRO对研究和发展),而调整其焦点。
全球空间市场约为3600亿美元,预计到2040年增长到1万亿美元。
进一步说,该国的蓝筹股空间项目——Gaganyaan /人类太空任务——错过了最后期限,该项目将重回正轨。
“Somanath前面临的主要挑战是调整ISRO向由政府给出的新愿景。ISRO印度空间的管理部门。所以实体看到空间技术可用于开始一个新的经济活动,由政府设想,包括私营部门创造就业机会。这也将提高行业的贡献国家的国内生产总值(GDP),“工业联合会主席拉克什Sasibhushan全国委员会在空间,告诉题材影片。
他说,国家对空间领域的花费约为20亿美元,但合成对GDP的贡献并不多。
“花在太空计划上并没有发生为经济增长。印度没有在太空实力较强的私营部门,而其他许多国家冒险进入这个领域进展远远领先于印度。莫迪总理曾说,政府没有业务在业务”。以前ISRO犹豫跟随,并继续以同样的方式,”Sasibhushan说。
例如,有一个大的卫星转发器容量不足和许多的800和古怪的印度电视频道使用外国卫星转发器。
印度17通信卫星转发器提供292.5和25 GBPS的高吞吐量的能力。
ISRO使每年约4 / 5卫星包括通信、遥感和其他人考虑潜在的严重不足。
“此外,商业卫星建立供应驱动的方式,伤害用户社区,“Sasibhushan补充道。
印度宇航局ISRO商业活动,其政策和程序是官僚主义和垄断,防止其他玩家的进入。
空间的中央政府宣布放松管制部门在2020年和2022年现在没什么已经在这方面,官员指出。
“太空活动法案不断增长的私人空间的基础活动,使保险和全球商业活动。还需要推出新的空间政策立即连同修订外商直接投资规范,”Sasibhushan说。
”“火箭飞行的认识——人类太空任务Gaganyaan印度的一部分——将是一个重大的推动,灵感的来源在人民的心中。将会有大量的兴奋和两个“火箭发射,“创始人Chaitanya Giri博士DAWON咨询&情报告诉题材影片。
他补充说,9023卢比Gaganyaan有很多战略重要性的国家除了科学成就使命。
空间部门改革的一部分,2022年印度有限公司(NSIL)新空间应该决定行业的球员(s)乐动扑克使极地卫星运载火箭(PSLV)或PSLV火箭。
NSIL已经呼吁对生产PSLV火箭的一个行业协会。
政府正在寻找NSIL的头。
在火箭方面,火箭专家Somanath看到认识的小火箭的绕组的名字小卫星运载火箭(SSLV),携带500公斤的卫星的能力。
ISRO也应该取得进展的建设第二个火箭在泰米尔纳德邦Kulasekarapattinam港。
ISRO的焦点转移到研究和开发(研发),作为改革进程的一部分,已经成立的委员会推荐的方法合理精简和优化利用现有科技(科技)人力资源预计将提交报告。
为私营部门企业制造火箭和卫星,明年将是至关重要的。
小宇宙火箭制造商Skyroot航空私人有限公司和Agnikul希望飞他们的车辆到2022年底,而卫星制造商朔望Pvt Ltd空间技术,俗称Pixxel预计明年飞它的卫星。
“2022年是一个重要的一年我们一起把一切Vikram-1发射的火箭和加入世界精英提供启动解决方案,“一生Kumar Chandana首席执行官和首席技术官,Skyroot航空,告诉题材影片。
作为一个开放的空间领域的一部分,印度政府已构成了印度国家太空促销和授权中心(太空)作为私营企业的行业监管机构。
ISRO太空还将使使用的设施。
有30多个请求从私人公司的支持来自太空的太空活动预计将决定明年。
业内人士预计,太空和部门规章创业一样敏捷。
“Somanath是恰当的人推动这种变化,我毫不怀疑,他会采取ISRO新的高度,”Sasibhushan总结道。
