Astrophel Aerospace Partners with IN-SPACe for Rocket Development
A space tech company called Astrophel Aerospace has partnered with IN-SPACe, the government's space agency.
This partnership will help them build reusable rockets.
They can now use ISRO's testing facilities.
Astrophel recently got money to build a rocket that can be used again, and also engine parts.
They plan to launch a rocket into space soon.
They want to create a rocket that can land and be used multiple times in the next 24-36 months.
Astrophel Aerospace signed MoU with IN-SPACe to develop semi-cryogenic and reusable rockets.
The MoU allows access to ISRO facilities for technical reviews and testing.
Collaboration with ISRO experts is included under a Joint Project Implementation Plan.
