In a statement made on Tuesday, ISRO chief V Narayanan revealed that a crack was found in the main feed line of the rocket that was set to carry Indian astronaut Subhanshu Shukla and three others to the International Space Station (ISS).
This discovery, which forced a launch reschedule, was crucial, as a mission with the undetected flaw would have resulted in a "catastrophic failure," Narayanan said.
