The Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC) has developed a multi-purpose app named ‘SAKHI’.
SAKHI stands for ‘Space-borne Assistant and Knowledge Hub for Crew Interaction’
It will help astronauts on the Gaganyaan space flight mission carry out a range of tasks such as looking up vital technical information or communicating with one another.
SAKHI will also keep a close watch on their health like blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen saturation.
