A launch window for India as a space start-up hub

The Hindu  

The great space race of the 20th century was kicked off by the Soviet Union’s launch of Sputnik in 1957. India, a very marginal player Last year, according to a report, the Government of India created a new organisation known as IN-SPACe which is a “single window nodal agency” established to boost the commercialisation of Indian space activities. A supplement to the Indian Space Research Organisation, the agency promotes the entry of the Non-Government Private Entities in the Indian space sector. Currently, a report on a leading news portal says: the reason for the lack of independent private participation in space includes the absence of a framework to provide transparency and clarity in laws. Mature space agencies such as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States, China’s China National Space Administration, and Russia’s Roscosmos seek support from private players such as Boeing, SpaceX and Blue Origin for complex operations beyond manufacturing support, such as sending crew and supplies to the International Space Station.
