    Dr V Narayanan has been appointed as the next chairman of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). According to an official notification issued on Tuesday, he will succeed the current chairman, S Somnath, on 14 January.

With nearly four decades of experience, he has held several key roles within the organisation. His expertise in rocket and spacecraft propulsion has significantly contributed to India’s space advancements.

    One of his notable achievements was leading the C25 Cryogenic Project for the GSLV Mk III vehicle as its Project Director. Under his leadership, the C25 Stage—a critical component of the GSLV Mk III—was successfully developed.

    Contributions to ISRO’s Key Missions

    During his tenure, the LPSC delivered 183 Liquid Propulsion Systems and Control Power Plants for various ISRO missions. Dr Narayanan also played a pivotal role in realising the second and fourth stages of PSLV rockets and the control power plants for the PSLV C57 mission.

    His contributions extend to propulsion systems for landmark projects, including the Aditya Spacecraft, GSLV Mk III, Chandrayaan-2, and Chandrayaan-3.
