ISRO Spaceship

Hello sir I want to know about ISRO Spaceship so here can you please tell me about its objective ?

Hey as The Indian human Spaceflight programme is a proposal by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to develop and launch a two-person crew to Low Earth orbit

History

On 9 August 2007 the then Chairman of the ISRO, G Madhavan Nair, indicated the agency is "seriously considering" a human spaceflight mission.
He further indicated that within a year ISRO would report on its development of new space capsule technologies

Objective
The major objective of manned mission programme is to develop the fully autonomous three-ton ISRO Orbital Vehicle spaceship to carry a 2-member crew to orbit and safe return to the Earth after a mission duration of few orbits to two days.

The extendable version of the spaceship will allow flights up to seven days, rendezvous and docking capability with space stations or orbital platform.

Plans
ISRO plans to use for OV spaceship the GSLV-Mk II launcher (Mark two is Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle-II launcher with an indigenous cryogenic engine).
About 16 minutes after lift-off from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC), Sriharikota, the rocket will inject the Orbital Vehicle (OV) into an orbit, 300 km-400 km from the Earth.
The capsule would return for a splashdown in the Bay of Bengal.

Training Centre
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) will set up an Vyomanaut training centre in Bengaluru by 2012, to prepare personnel both for first orbital flights aboard an OV and for future manned Moon missions which will land Indians on the Earth's natural satellite after 2020
