ISRO Successfully Tests SE2000 Engine for LVM3 Rocket Upgrade

ISRO is testing a new rocket engine called SE2000 to make its LVM3 rockets better.

This engine uses liquid oxygen and kerosene, a different type of fuel than the old one.

The recent test was part of a series to ensure the engine works correctly.

The goal is to increase how much the rocket can carry into space, like bigger satellites or more equipment.

If successful, it will allow ISRO to launch heavier payloads to space, helping them in their space missions.
