[i]The ISRO chief emphasised that various demonstrations would be taken up and an unmanned mission in the middle of next year and make sure everything is fine. "(Gaganyaan) cannot happen this year or next year. This is for the safety of our folks." "We need to remove the worry part – any time it can burst. Worry can be removed only by ruggadising the object, testing it more number of times and introducing intelligence in the rocket so that it can identify problems, let the aircraft know pilots can escape. But rockets cannot do that. Rockets are moving very fast and rockets themselves have to find out something is going bad now so let these fellows go away. It will automatically command an escape system and the astronauts can escape. This is new system currently what we are doing is let us wait for some more time." "If we want to fly astronauts, we need to first prove the safety system.. it has to go through many tests. We are trying to do that this year. I don't want to end up doing the Gaganyaan programme with a disaster. We will want to do it very cautiously."[/i]
