Hyderabad, June 07: As we knew that, the heaviest rocket has been launched successfully by the ISRO team, from this perspective former chief G Madhavan Nair has been commented on the successful launch.

He said that the Indian Space Research Organisation now needs to focus on human space flight mission, further development of semi-cryogenic engine and recoverable and reusable launch system,


"Couple of launches of GSLV Mark III have to be done so that we prove our reliability, and simultaneously start the program for our manned mission and then, of course, semi-cryogenic project," Mr. Nair said.

"If you want to have an eco-friendly rocket, more efficient rocket system for the future, from that point of view semi-cryogenic is very important," Mr. Nair said.

"Semi-cryogenic engine should become a replacement for some of the boosters in the days to come," he said.
