Scientific Objectives: To identify the various Heliocentric phenomenon solar cycle and spoon. To understand the origin of universe and earth. To understand the various processes in galaxy and universe and find out earth like planet. Synplanes include spill over and spin off effect on other field (particle physics, quantum mechanics), generate interest of youth on space exploration, will pave way for asteroid sector (ISRO spaccraft), raise India's influence in the world. However, there are certain challenges: ethical concern of bias of the scientist, against the law of natural law of natural selection, may lead to threat to biodiversity, it is a double edged sword where effective regulation is needed with to be reaping full benefits of it.
