India's Space capsule Recovery Experiment [SRE]

Ofcourse it flew with a rocket n this upside down design makes it more aerodynamic

I dont understand our Space Capsule can fly to space without an launch vehicle and that to upside down and return back to splash on sea? lol

But great find as usual mate, this shows they have already tested the heat shield successfully.

@KarthikSoun the animation begins when the capsule had started the deboost phase of its mission & had entered the Earth's atmosphere after orbiting the Earth for 12 days where it was placed by a PSLV launch.
