Bengaluru: Four astronauts who chose part of the mission of the mission had landed in Bidar in North Carnataka for the first part of their training module in India.
The four pilots of tests from the Indian Air Force (IAF) reached Bidar last week and will fly on fighter planes at the IAF base at the Bidar that accommodate eagle jets for next week before moving to other aspects of the training.
Toi is the first to report that the astronauts will start training in September the first week.
Confirming the development, Chair of the Isro K Sivan said the training felt it was necessary based on expert advice because four pilots had “exited the loop for more than a year”.
Wing Commander (Retd) Rakesh Sharma, an astronaut that flew into space on the Russian mission in 1984, said: “…
Each set of skills cannot be permitted rusty and this is continuity training.
Reasons for pilot tests are appointed to prove the system that has yet Prosecent previously, to make a new protocol etc., it was because they were trained because they were cut above the rest as pilots.
This training is to ensure that their core skills sets are not lost or rusty.
“Sharma, which is also part of the National Advisory Council of the previous event To the Toi that pilot tests, based on their specialty, are always called to study in depth all that might be wrong in something that has not been tried before.
This, he said, gave them excellence because they were experienced in preparing themselves better.
Sivan said that they were expected to complete the flight training schedule at the end of this week.
After the Bidar program is finished, selected astronauts are scheduled to start their academic courses or theories.
Fitness and other related activities will be a sustainable process through their training.
Furthermore, ISRO, who has signed a cooperation agreement with the Russian space agency for the failure, will receive a seat to be used on the crew module from Russia.
“We have booked four chairs to be installed in the crew module, each of which will be adjusted for each astronaut.
So, at a certain point later, they will go to Russia for this, and also to get room clothes sewn,” said Sivan .
Furthermore, with the National Medical Advisory Board specifically for this program, after putting the protocol that will be followed given the situation of the pandemic, the astronauts will start their academic courses or theories.
Among other things, the Board has set a guideline to distance physically, need glass separators between astronauts during academic training, bio-bubble creation when they practice in certain modules.
