On Friday, Skyroot Aerospace etched its name in the annals of Indian space history by becoming the first domestic private company to develop and fly a rocket.
Though there were some who had doubted private companies making rockets, the pedigree of the people at the Skyroot Aerospace proved them wrong.
The Hyderabad-based rocket startup was founded by Pawan Kumar Chandana and Naga Bharath Daka in June 2018. Till date, the company has raised Rs 526 crore in funds and has about 200 employees.
Incidentally, the two founders are from Indian Institute of Technology (Iit) – Chandana from Iit Kharagpur and Daka from Iit Madras.
Chandana, a B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering and M.Tech in Thermal Science and Engineering, worked with Isro’s rocket making centre Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (Vssc) in Thiruvananthapuram for nearly six years – 2012-2018.
In 2018 he co-founded Skyroot Aerospace.

Weighing 545 kg, the six-metre-long rocket on a sub-orbital mission carried three payloads from Space Kidz India, Bazoomq Armenia, and N-Space Tech India.
The rocket was made with carbon fibre and four 3D printed engines and its single stage was powered by solid fuel.
At about 11.30 a.m., Vikram-s flew away from Isro’s sounding rocket launch pad at Isro’s rocket port in Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh.
The rocket reached an altitude of 89.5 km and then safely splashed down in the Bay of Bengal.
In about 300 seconds, a new space history was made in India.
The mission will help validate the technologies that will be used in the subsequent Vikram-1 orbital vehicle of Skyroot Aerospace that is planned for launch next year.
Union Science & Technology Minister Jitendra Singh who witnessed the launch here said it is indeed a new beginning, a new dawn, a new ‘Prarambh’ in Indian space programme.
