Agnikul Cosmos targets 100 rocket launches annually by 2030
Agnikul Cosmos, a company based in Chennai, wants to launch rockets 100 times a year by 2030.
They plan to use reusable rockets, which means they can use the same rocket parts for multiple launches.
This will help them save money and make their launches more affordable.
They have already raised a lot of money to build these rockets and have a special patent for their technology.
The company believes that by reusing parts of their rockets, they can launch 100 times a year using only 30-40 rockets.
They are different from other companies like SpaceX because they focus on smaller rockets.
Some people are not sure if small rockets can be reused, but Agnikul thinks they can make it work and become an important player in the space industry.
Agnikul Cosmos aims to conduct 100 rocket launches per year by 2030 using reusable rockets.
The company expects to achieve profitability within the next two years.
Agnikul's targeted launch cost is under $2 million per mission.
The company has a global patent for reusability in the small rocket sector.
Agnikul plans to recover and reuse the booster stage of its rockets to reduce costs.
