ANALYSE AND INTERPRET..India is looking at building a Space Station in Low Earth Orbit. The proposal will be sent to the Government for approval after the first Gaganyaan Mission by 2022 and it is looking at 5-7 years to execute the Programme.This is to conduct microgravity experiments.Setting up such a Space Station at an altitude of 400 kms from the Earth will hinge on the successful execution of the Gaganyaan Human Space Mission.ISS weighs 420 tonnes and Indian station is expected to have a payload of 20 tonnes.The idea is to have our own space station, where Indian astronauts can fly regularly.The size is expected to be two Gaganyaan crew modules and a little more.It will also be available for collaborative research with other countries. WHAT ABOUT SPACE STATIONS OF OTHER COUNTRIES?As of now, only International Space Station is operational. Prior to that the Mir station built by the erstwhile Soviet Union was the only such facility available. China is the only other country to have a Space Station Programme. It has tested out technologies through two Tiangong Spacecraft. China is not yet ready to support habitation for astronauts.ISS is a science lab and joint project between five participating space agencies: NASA (United States), Roscosmos (Russia), JAXA (Japan), ESA (Europe), and CSA (Canada).The Digital Communications Commission (DCC), the apex decision-making body of the Department of Telecommunications cleared the norms for 5G trials in India.However, a decision on the contentious issue of the use of Huawei equipment in telecom infrastructure, particularly for futuristic 5G networks is expected to be taken soon.Govt. is expected to take a calibrated decision.Last month, U.S. Govt. had placed Huawei and its affiliates on the blacklist, a move that barred it from purchasing components from American firms without its approval.5G THE PACE IS NOT ENOUGH!The Digital Communications Commission also approved norms for spectrum allocation for 5G trials, based on the recommendations of DoT-constituted committee chaired by IIT Kanpur Director, Abhay Karandikar.The thrust is on developing our own hardware devices and make available experimental spectrum on extremely liberal terms.
