Indian Microgravity Experiments-2026 (iMEx-2026)

ISRO, through Human Space Flight Centre (HSFC), has issued an Announcement of Opportunity (AO) for Indian Microgravity Experiments-2026 (iMEx-2026). This initiative invites researchers from recognized academic, research institutions, and Indian start-ups to submit proposals for microgravity experiments. Selected experiments may be validated on terrestrial platforms and potentially flown to LEO, including the Bharatiya Antariksh Station (BAS).

Open to researchers affiliated with government-recognized academic/research institutions or Indian start-ups. Must demonstrate scientific feasibility of microgravity experiments in laboratory conditions. No specific age limit. PI must submit required statutory declarations and follow proposal format outlined in Annexure-1.
