Space Technology Courses in India are one of the prestigious courses. This prestige is bestowed by various achievements of india in space technology. Various Universities, Research Organizations and Institutions are actively involved in the researches of the diverse field of the space science. Space science research is being carried out by the Physical Research Laboratory (PRL Ahmedabad) and by the Space Physics Laboratory (SPL Thiruvananthapuram), in a major way. Space Technology is a field which deals with various Space Based Activities like entering space, maintaining and using systems during space flight and returning people and things from space. Aerospace workers are professionals who work independently or as part of a team. They conduct research, and design and develop vehicles and systems for atmospheric and space environments. weather forecasting, remote sensing, GPS systems, satellite television, and some long distance communications systems. It is a diverse industry, with a multitude of commercial, industrial and military applications.
