Chennai-based space start-up Agnikul Cosmos achieved a significant milestone on Thursday by conducting a successful sub-orbital test-flight of its domestically manufactured 3D-printed semi-cryogenic rocket, named Agnibaan, from its launch pad at Sriharikota. This accomplishment marks Agnikul Cosmos as the second private entity in India to achieve such a feat, following in the footsteps of Skyroot Aerospace, which launched the Vikram S in November 2022.
