India will build petrol pumps manufacture medicines in space:Startup founders disclose plans on meeting with PM Modi

Petrol pumps in space, garbage-removing robots, and medicines floating in the air. India’s space sector is now working on making technology seen in films a reality. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had a special conversation with founders of 20 space startups in the country. The PM assured that the government will never let go of entrepreneurs’ hands. Those who take risks will get full support. This conversation took place on August 21, but the video was released today on August 23. Read the highlights of this conversation… Skyroot’s goal to launch a rocket every month Skyroot informed PM Modi that on July 18, satellites were successfully placed in orbit from India’s first private rocket. The company has now set up 3 factories, which have the capacity to build one rocket every month. The company’s plan is to launch one rocket every month. The next target is one every week and in the future, several rockets every day. Petrol pumps, cleaning robots and medicine-making satellites Indian startups are working on several new technologies: Learn about Space Petrol Pump and Space Pharma Just like we go to a pump when our vehicle runs out of petrol on the road, similarly satellites run out of fuel in space. An Indian company is developing technology that will connect with satellites flying in the air and refuel them like petrol-diesel. This will prevent satellites worth crores from becoming useless. Meanwhile, when a medicine is made on Earth, due to the pull of gravity, its chemicals and proteins don’t mix properly or start settling down. In contrast, in space, medicines and proteins mix in pure form without any pull. This makes the process of making medicines extremely precise and clean. Engineers Leaving America-Europe and Coming to India After opening the space sector to private players, a new global trend is visible. Indian engineers working in America and Europe are now leaving their jobs and returning to India and joining the country’s space startups. On this, PM Modi said that India should create an environment where the entire world’s talent looks towards India to build a career in the space sector. The Indian talent pool can work like a magnet that attracts scientists from around the world. 8 New International Contracts Received in 1 Month Indian startups are building ground station networks at the global level and are ready to export satellite engines. These engines help satellites move from one place to another in space for 5 to 15 years. Indian companies are getting good response based on cost-effectiveness, meaning low cost, and talent. In the last one month alone, Indian startups have received 8 new launch contracts, most of which are from foreign clients. Preparation to Help 10 Lakh Farmers with Space Data Space-tech startups are also focusing on India’s agricultural sector. The startups plan to help approximately 10 lakh farmers through space data and satellites. This will provide accurate information about weather, soil moisture, and crop health, which will help make farming more profitable.
