The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) signs a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Gurugram, Haryana-based, Vyom Space Exploration and Services for its “human and cargo transportation capsule program”.
The MoU was facilitated by India’s nodal space authorization body, Indian National Space Promotion and Authorization Center (In-Space).

A ‘capsule’ in a space mission is the module inside which any cargo is placed for being carried to space. In manned missions, the capsule is what hosts the astronauts. The capsules have typically been single-use in nature, with the exception of US-based private space firm, Elon Musk’s SpaceX’s reusable human and cargo module, Crew Dragon.
