The world’s first rocket propelled entirely by 3D printing, “Agnibaan – SOrTeD,” was successfully launched by startup Agnikul Cosmos, marking a significant milestone for the Indian space industry. The launch occurred from “Dhanush,” India’s first privately-developed launchpad, which Agnikul also built in Sriharikota.
An important turning point for India’s developing private space industry is this mission. At 7:15 AM IST today, the rocket—which was propelled by the country’s first locally developed and produced semi-cryogenic engine—took off into the sky.
