  • <p>India’s astronomical heritage—from the Āryabhaṭīya to the Sūrya Siddhānta—lays the mathematical foundation for many principles used in modern orbital science.</p> <p>This paper compares ancient models of planetary motion, trigonometry, and eclipse mechanics with today’s orbital equations.</p> <p>It analyses ISRO missions such as Chandrayaan, Mangalyaan, PSLV, and Aditya-L1 through historical, mathematical, and visual frameworks.</p> <p>Findings show strong parallels between ancient formulations and contemporary mission design.</p> <p>The study reveals that India’s space achievements reflect a civilisational continuity, not isolated epochs.</p> <p>Ancient trigonometric methods map directly to modern trajectory calculations.</p> <p>Earth’s rotation theory by Aryabhata aligns with modern orbital dynamics.</p> <p>Mission data and orbital modelling highlight India’s engineering precision.</p> <p>The work argues for a unified scientific journey spanning millennia.</p> <p>It positions India as a global leader whose space ambitions are rooted in centuries-old knowledge.</p>
