Visuals of the ISRO team, three women and two men, went viral on Thursday morning and a Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) official confirmed their visit.

"Yes, an ISRO team has visited Tirumala but our publicity wing did not cover their visit," a TTD official told PTI.

He said temple officials were busy with the visit of Supreme Court Judges and Union Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari.
