The Indian Space Research Organisation ISRO is conducting studies and mini-projects to enable the vertical landing of its rockets. According to senior officials this possibility is being explored primarily about the heavy-lift rocket GSLV Mk3 which is powered by three stages of engines - solid-fuel liquid-fuel and cryogenic fuel.ISRO is aiming to recover the first two rocket stages of the GSLV Mk3 as this would imply a huge cost-advantage and savings owing to reusability.
