Harsha Bhogle is someone one can associate speaking eloquently about the beautiful sound of a cricket ball hitting a bat. But this podcast Mission ISRO with Harsha Bhogle – has him narrate the various stories and the history of India’s space program.

This podcast is Spotify Studios production. A new episode is released every Friday.
Well researched, beautifully edited with excellent sound mixing and narration. It evokes memories of those old radio shows. Where sound effects, interview snippets, and a narrative would educate and entertain.
It traces the story of ISRO from its first sounding rocket launch from Thumba, Kerala but with a healthy mix of sound bytes by rocket scientists in India and others.
Listen on Spotify. (Unfortunately, this podcast can be listened to only on Spotify)
There is also a wonderful podcast on the Apollo 11 mission by BBC called 13 Minutes to the moon.
Fun fact:
- The rocket in the featured image above seems to be the ISRO’s Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle
- The orbiting vehicle seems most likely the GSAT29.
