Skyroot Aerospace launches Vikram-1 maiden test flight in Sriharikota

Skyroot Aerospace on Saturday launched the maiden test flight of its Vikram-1 rocket from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh, marking India's first attempt by a private company to fly an orbital-class launch vehicle. The mission, named Aagaman, aims to validate the rocket's propulsion, guidance, navigation and stage-separation systems before future commercial missions. The launch is seen as a landmark in India's private space sector, building on Skyroot's successful Vikram-S suborbital mission in 2022 and signalling the growing role of private enterprises in the country's space ecosystem. #SkyrootAerospace #Vikram1 #MissionAagaman #Sriharikota #AndhraPradesh #ISRO #IndianSpace #SpaceTech #PrivateSpace #RocketLaunch #India Thank you for watching our video!
