NEW DELHI, May 30: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday lauded the successful launch of a rocket powered by world’s first single-piece 3D printed semi-cryogenic engine as a “momentous occasion” for India’s space sector.
Chennai-based space start-up Agnikul Cosmos successfully carried out a sub-orbital test-flight of its home-built 3D-printed semi-cryogenic rocket — Agnibaan — from its own launch pad at Sriharikota, making it India’s second private entity to do so.
Modi, in a post on X, said, “A remarkable feat which will make the entire nation proud!”
