Deputy Director General, Manohar Parrikar IDSA, Gp Capt Ajey Lele’s article ‘Combating Cosmic Hazards’ has been published in Raksha Anirveda on 29 October 2024.
With humanity’s increasing reliance on space technologies, space weather poses significant risks to the safety and sustainability of space operations. A robust Space Situational Awareness (SSA) network is vital for tracking space debris, predicting potential collisions, and providing essential collision avoidance measures to ensure the safety and sustainability of India’s space operations. It is now imperative for ISRO to create a multi-agency framework for space meteorology, says Gp Capt Lele.
