India is going electric—in space.
ISRO has just completed a 1,000-hour test of its 300mN Stationary Plasma Thruster, running at full power with xenon gas. The result? A propulsion system that's 6× more efficient than traditional chemical rockets.
This marks a major leap toward lighter, longer-lasting, and smarter satellites—all leading up to ISRO’s TDS-01 electric mission. With plasma power, India’s next-gen space missions just got a serious upgrade.
The future of flight isn’t fire… it’s plasma.
