India wants to build a satellite constellation and 30 companies are interested

India Today  

Thirty Indian companies have stepped forward to participate in a groundbreaking initiative to establish Earth observation satellite constellations, responding to a call from the Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre. Since opening the space sector to private players earlier this year, India has established a Rs 10 billion venture fund aimed at supporting space startups. The government’s focus on developing indigenous satellite capabilities is crucial as India currently sources much of its EO data from foreign entities like the European Space Agency and ISRO. As India embarks on this ambitious journey towards self-reliance in space data, the successful implementation of these satellite constellations could significantly enhance national security and infrastructure planning.
