The Indian Space Research Organisation[a] (ISRO /ˈɪsroʊ/) or (IAST : Bhāratīya Antrikṣ Anusandhān Saṅgaṭhan) is the national space agency of India, headquartered in Bengaluru. It operates under Department of Space (DOS) which is directly overseen by the prime minister of India while chairman of ISRO acts as executive of DOS as well. ISRO is the primary agency in India to perform tasks related to space based applications, space exploration and development of related technologies.[6] It is one of six government space agencies in the world which possess full launch capabilities, deploy cryogenic engines, launch extraterrestrial missions and operate large fleets of artificial satellites.[7][8][b]The Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR) was established by Jawaharlal Nehru under the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) in 1962, on the urging of scientist Vikram Sarabhai recognising the need in space research. INCOSPAR grew and became ISRO in 1969, within DAE.[9] In 1972, the Government of India had set up a Space Commission and the Department of Space (DOS), bringing ISRO under the DOS. The establishment of ISRO thus institutionalised space research activities in India.[10][11] It since then has been managed by the DOS, which governs various other institutions in India in domain of astronomy and space technology.[12]
ISRO built India's first satellite, Aryabhata, which was launched by the Soviet Union on 19 April 1975.[13] In 1980, ISRO launched satellite RS-1 onboard its own SLV-3 making India the sixth country to be capable of undertaking orbital launches. SLV-3 was followed by ASLV which was subsequently succeeded by development of many medium-lift launch vehicles, rocket engines, satellite systems and networks enabling agency to launch hundreds of domestic and foreign satellites and various deep space missions for space exploration.
ISRO was the world's first space agency to find water on the moon[14] and insert a probe in orbit of Mars in its maiden attempt. It has the world's largest constellation of remote-sensing satellites and operates two satellite navigation systems namely GAGAN and NAVIC.
Goals in near future include expanding satellites fleet, landing a rover on Moon, sending humans into space, development of a semi-cryogenic engine, sending more unmanned missions to moon, Mars, Venus and Sun and deployment of more space telescopes in orbit to observe consmic phenomena and outerspace beyond solar system. Long term plans include development of reusable launchers, heavy and super heavy launch vehicles, deploying a space station, sending exploration missions to external planets like Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and asteroids and manned missions to Moon and planets.
ISRO's programs have played a significant role in the socio-economic development of India and have supported both civilian and military domains in various aspects including disaster management, telemedicine and navigation and reconnaissance missions. ISRO's spin off technologies also have founded many crucial innovations for India's engineering and medical industries.
Answer:
REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS - DEFINITION
Pronouns are called reflexive pronouns when the action of the verb turns back on the subject.
Reflexive pronouns are usually objects of the verb.
Eg: I fed myself the grapes.
You accidentally cut yourself last Thursday.
We blame ourselves for the accident.
Jonah helped himself to the food.
Lisa read to herself in the afternoon.
They bought themselves new shoes.
EMPHATIC PRONOUNS - DEFINITION
Emphatic pronouns are compound personal pronouns such as 'himself', 'myself' and 'yourself' used for emphasis.
Eg: I will build the house myself.
We will watch the show ourselves.
You yourself can tell us about the situation.
We saw the President himself.
She herself told us the news.
The city itself does not receive much rainfall.
They themselves prefer to stay at home.
EMPHATIC PRONOUN - DEFINITION
When reflexive pronouns are used to emphasize the noun, they are called emphatic pronouns.
For example:
She herself informed me.
They themselves saw it.
RELATION BETWEEN REFLEXIVE AND EMPHATIC PRONOUNS - DEFINITION
Reflexive pronouns show that the action of the subject reflects upon the doer. However, an emphatic pronoun simply emphasizes the action of the subject.
Example:
She cut herself. - herself is a reflexive pronoun since the subject's (the girl's) action (cutting) refers back to the doer (the girl).
She herself cut the cake. - herself is an emphatic pronoun because it is emphasizing the subject (the girl).
