India's private space startups are now building their own rocket engine test stands.
Here are the 6 I've mapped across Astrobase, EtherealX and Agnikul, with thrust ratings, purpose and status, plus one honorable mention 🧵👇

The launch crisis will be won by whoever reaches #orbit first—not whoever plans the biggest rocket.
@arstechnica confirmed the shortage is worse than expected.
Supply is tightening. Demand keeps rising. This squeeze will last years.
That’s why @CosmicportSpace is starting small.
We’re flying #methalox vehicles first to prove the engine, the stage, and the operations in actual flight.
Small doesn’t mean #limited.
It means we de-risk fast so we can scale #harder and #sooner.
Methalox is the foundation:
Clean, reusable, and scalable from small vehicles into larger stages.
The same propellant then supports the real future — orbital depots, space stations, reusable spaceplanes, and eventually in-situ propellant production. The goal isn’t one impressive launch.
It’s #cadence.
The teams that earn #flight heritage earliest will control capacity when it becomes the scarcest resource.
That’s the path we’re on.

Replying to @RohitChan666
This is too generic. Tell me specific to Pixxel. You are confusing Pixxel to other companies.

Remembering Dr. Homi J. Bhabha on his birth anniversary.
At Dhruva Space, this legacy connects with our own HAB missions at TIFR, where we tested satellite TT&C systems. A meaningful part of our journey rooted in the same spirit of science and exploration that has shaped India's Deep Tech progress.

#WATCH | Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh: ISRO Chairman Dr. V. Narayanan says, "On October 30th at 11:51 PM, under the guidance of the Prime Minister of India, we are going to launch NVS-03, a navigation satellite, using our GSLV-F18 launch vehicle. This is the fifth mission we have accomplished this year, including a private launch. With this launch, we will have four operational navigation satellites in orbit—including one equipped with an indigenous atomic clock—providing precise position, navigation, and timing services for India. These services serve multiple purposes, including strategic applications, supporting the Airports Authority of India, real-time train tracking, vehicle monitoring, and vessel navigation for boats and ships..."
