Eyes on the stars': India's spacetech start-ups get ready for big takeoff

Indian spacetech start-ups: After reporting several successes in 2022, the Indian spacetech sector is looking at entering its next phase of growth

Some cool insights for India's space startup ecosystem....

Let suppose human flight get succeed than wat will be next step? We hv no space station.

Is regular small human flight will happen without space station?

The Obvious and Natural progress:
First certify HSF and then proceed for Space Station.

If this is true, then

I think everyone knows there is no budget issue, and to my knowledge the Chandrayaan-3 bus is the same as last time. No extra equipment or testing other than software, so I don't know why it's delayed a year

With cy-3 postponed to 2024
How many launches possible this year
Can we achieve our 6-7 launches per year again

The CY-3 delay isn't really confirmed, I just put the tweet there just in case it is true. For now until ISRO makes a statement I would consider CY-3 to be launching in August

CY-3 delay was confirmed by HSFC director himself, so its almost official

Wow, does that fucking suck. Why is it delayed?

Delay is because of lack of LVM3 rockets,they are currently being used for Oneweb , these rockets have long lead time,hence the delay

Fair enough

 

[Vamsi]

Fair enough

Also don't forget the launch campaign time of LVM3....next LVM3 launch would be Early March 2023, so it would take atleast 4 months to assemble next rocket & hence it would miss June launch window....the available launch window after June is Late 2023, hence the delay

 

[DumbPilot]

welp, that sucks. Was really looking forward to CY-3 this year

 

[Vamsi]

welp, that sucks. Was really looking forward to CY-3 this year

It really sucks.... LVM3-M2 used for last Oneweb India-1 launch was actually assigned for CY-3, they later reassigned it to Oneweb.....they preferred commercial launches over CY-3

Well, to be fair, OneWeb was a lot of money to be gained and I think a step in the right direction. The OneWeb launch was unexpected anyway, and better our rockets getting fame than some American or French rocket.

Guess we'll launch CY-3 when it is finally time. Space exploration in the country isn't really a big topic, but I hope after the first manned spaceflight, this changes.

Of course making money is always better.

They can launch only 1 LVM-3 per year, so do not expect them to launch Gaganyaan G1 in 2024, it will definitely be slipped to 2025, so human spaceflight in all probability will be NET early 2027

We should cope with Aditya-L1 & if possible NISAR launches this year...

Aditya-L1 June/July 2023 PSLV
NISAR- Sept 2023- GSLV
