The '''ISRO Space Station (ISS)''' is a planned [[space station]] to be constructed by [[India]] and operated by [[Indian Space Research Organisation]]. The space station would weigh 20 tonnes and maintain an orbit of approximately 400 kilometres above the Earth, where astronauts could stay for 15–20 days.<ref name=isrostation/> Originally planned to be launched in 2030, it was further postponed to 2035 due to delays led by technical issues related with the [[Gaganyaan]] crewed spaceflight mission and the COVID-19 pandemic.<ref>{{cite news |title=ISRO to develop reusable rockets, aims to set up space station by 2035: Report |url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/science/isro-to-develop-reusable-rockets-aims-to-set-up-space-station-by-2035-report-101667130787541.html |access-date=9 November 2022 |agency=Hindustan Times |date=30 October 2022}}</ref><br />

== History ==<br />
In 2019, Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) chief K Sivan presented the features of the proposed space station for the first time, saying that the space station may weigh up to 20 tons. Three years later, in Sivan's new year speech, he stated that India's first crewed spaceflight project [[Gaganyaan]] has completed the design phase and has entered into the testing phase, hinting that the organization has achieved a breakthrough in reaching the space mission milestone.<ref name=isrostation>{{cite news |last1=Tiwari |first1=Sakshi |title=India’s Space Station: As China Set To Become The Only Country With A Space Station, Will ISRO Hit Its 2030 Deadline? |url=https://eurasiantimes.com/china-exclusive-space-station-will-indian-isro-meet-its-2030-deadline/ |access-date=9 November 2022 |agency=Eurasian Times |date=17 January 2022}}</ref><br />
