Roadmap to India's first manned space mission

Two men and one woman are expected to be sent into space for seven days aboard India's first manned space flight Gaganyaan. The spacecraft, which will take 16 minutes to reach the orbit, will be placed in a low earth orbit of 300-400 km.

GSLV Mk III, the three-stage heavy-lift launch vehicle, will be used to launch Gaganyaan as it has the necessary payload capability.
