Isro releases onboard video of Gaganyaan test flight

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has released a video of the successful launch of the Gaganyaan TV-D1 test vehicle. The video shows different stages of the test, including engine ignition, crew module separation, and main chute deployment. The test flight also demonstrated ISRO's safety measures for crew during emergencies. ISRO plans to send a female humanoid robot in an unmanned Gaganyaan spacecraft next year and is considering Air Force fighter test pilots as initial candidates for the Gaganyaan mission.
