INCOSPAR meaning in Academic & Science ?

Answer:

What is Indian National Committee for Space Research mean?

The Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR) was set up by Dr. Vikram Sarabhai in 1962 to formulate the Indian Space Programme. At the time, the committee was part of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. The committee took over the responsibilities of the Department of Atomic Energy in space science and research. The then director of the DAE, Dr. Homi Bhabha, was instrumental in creation of the committee.

INCOSPAR took the decision to set up Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station (TERLS) at Thumba on the southern tip of India. H.G.S. Murthy was appointed as the first Director of Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station. Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam (who later became the President of India) was amongst the initial team of rocket engineers forming the INCOSPAR.

INCOSPAR was superseded by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) in 1969.
