Why Does Gaganyaan Need 10 Parachutes? | ISRO's Most Important Safety System

What is the last system standing between astronauts and disaster? It's not the rocket. It's not the heat shield. It's the parachute system. Following ISRO's latest successful Gaganyaan Integrated Main Parachute Air Drop Test (IMAT), this video explores one of the most critical yet least discussed technologies in human spaceflight. In this video, we compare the parachute systems used by the world's major crewed spacecraft, including: 🇮🇳 ISRO Gaganyaan 🇺🇸 NASA Apollo 🇺🇸 NASA Orion (Artemis) 🇺🇸 SpaceX Crew Dragon 🇺🇸 Boeing Starliner 🇷🇺 Russian Soyuz 🇨🇳 Chinese Shenzhou In this video you'll learn: ✅ How astronauts safely return from space ✅ Why some spacecraft use 1 parachute, while others use 3 or 4 ✅ Which spacecraft has the largest parachutes ever built ✅ Official canopy diameter comparison (to scale) ✅ Why SpaceX uses four parachutes instead of three ✅ How Soyuz and Shenzhou land on land using retrorockets ✅ Why Orion's parachute system is considered one of the most extensively tested in history ✅ The complete deployment sequence—from re-entry to splashdown ✅ The engineering philosophy behind parachute redundancy #isro #gaganyaan #nasa #spacex #soyuz #shenzhou #starliner #upsc If you wish to support our channel, you can send your love to UPI ID : nimbus-education@ybl Book an appointment for one-on-one session : https://meetpro.club/NimbusEducation Basics of Rocket Technology https://nimbus.on-app.in/app/oc/46936...
