Mohammed Muslim, Project Director, Cryogenic Upper Stage Project (CUSP), said the cryogenic technology was the most complex one to be developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).

This is a highly guarded technology. The ISRO had not taken chances with this mission and the vehicle has been reviewed and checked point by point any number of times, he said.
