A major boost for @isro’s semi-cryogenic engines! IIT Bombay and LPSC have developed Rainbow Schlieren Deflectometry (RSD) a clever optical technique to solve a tough rocket science problem. In these engines, high-temperature gaseous oxygen must completely condense into freezing liquid oxygen before entering the main pump. If any gas pockets remain, the pump can fail. Previously, measuring this rapid heat transfer meant inserting physical probes that disrupted the fluid flow. Now, RSD uses light to visually map these extreme temperature changes instantly without touching the fluid at all. This breakthrough gives engineers the precise data needed to design safer, more efficient propulsion systems for India's future launch vehicles. #ISRO #SpaceTech #IITBombay #CryogenicEngine

🚀 Big milestone for Indian private space!
Astrobase Space Technologies is building India’s first private 200-ton thrust cryogenic test facility on 21.5 acres near Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh.
This facility will test their powerful 80-ton (800 kN) Full-Flow Staged Combustion LOX-LNG engine with hot-fire tests planned for late 2026.
A major step towards high-performance, reusable propulsion developed entirely by the private sector.
Andhra Pradesh is fast emerging as India’s private space hub! 🇮🇳

🇮🇳 DRDO hands over ‘Prajna’, an indigenous AI-powered Satellite Imagery Analysis System to Ministry of Home Affairs
Developed by DRDO’s Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (CAIR), Bengaluru, Prajna is an advanced AI-enabled system that automatically analyzes high-resolution satellite imagery in real-time, detects threats, and delivers actionable intelligence directly to command networks.
Key Highlights:
• Designed for Himalayan border surveillance, dense forest or counter-Naxal operations, counter-terrorism, disaster response & suspicious activity tracking.
• Fully sovereign Indian infrastructure with zero foreign data dependency.
• Officially handed over on 20 April 2026 by DRDO Secretary Dr. Samir V. Kamat to Union Home Secretary Shri Govind Mohan at Kartavya Bhawan, New Delhi.
This marks a significant leap in India’s Atmanirbhar defence & internal security capabilities, reducing reliance on foreign satellite services.

#ScienceSpark | ISRO द्वारा स्वदेशी रूप से विकसित CE-20 क्रायोजेनिक इंजन, LVM3 जैसे भारी रॉकेटों को अंतरिक्ष की ऊँचाइयों तक ले जाने की ताकत देता है।
1991 में अमेरिका द्वारा रूस से तकनीक हस्तांतरण पर रोक लगाए जाने के बाद भारत ने इस जटिल तकनीक में खुद महारत हासिल की। यह इंजन अत्यधिक ठंडे तरल हाइड्रोजन और तरल ऑक्सीजन पर चलता है।
हाल ही में तमिलनाडु में ISRO ने CE-20 इंजन का बूट-स्ट्रैप मोड स्टार्ट टेस्ट सफलतापूर्वक पूरा करके एक बड़ा कदम आगे बढ़ाया है।

#ScienceSpark | The CE-20 cryogenic engine, developed indigenously by ISRO, powers heavy launch vehicles like the LVM3, delivering the thrust needed to reach high-altitude orbits.
After U.S. sanctions blocked a 1991 tech transfer from Russia, ISRO independently mastered this advanced engine, which runs on super-cooled liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.
Recently, ISRO achieved a major milestone with the successful boot-strap mode start test in Tamil Nadu.
In today’s episode of Science Spark, learn more.

ISRO successfully launches Communication Satellite-03 (#CMS03) aboard Launch Vehicle Mark-3 (#LVM3), nicknamed ‘Bahubali’ – India’s heaviest communication satellite ever at 4,410 kg. With it, India becomes only the 4th nation to launch such a heavy satellite.
Moreover, this satellite, built for the #IndianNavy, is India’s most advanced communication satellite to date. It will strengthen the Navy’s space-based communications and maritime domain awareness when India is expanding as a blue-water navy amid high tensions in the Indian Ocean Region.
Crucially, ISRO also conducted its first indigenously developed, in-orbit #CryogenicEngine test with this launch. This test, considered groundbreaking, will facilitate launches of heavier and multiple satellites simultaneously, and also benefit @ISRO’s human spaceflight, Gaganyaan and space station initiatives.
This 8th consecutive successful launch by #ISRO augments India as a formidable #SpacePower in heavy-lift rocket and space propulsion technology.
