Godrej Aerospace has supplied critical components to ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation) for its forthcoming Chandrayaan-3 mission.
This will be India’s third lunar mission and it is among few countries to have undertaken such an ambitious project.
Notably, liquid propulsion engines such as Vikas, CE20, and satellite thrusters for the lunar mission have been manufactured by Godrej Aerospace in its facility at Vikhroli in suburban Mumbai.
The company has been affiliated with the ISRO, an entity under the Department of Space, for over three decades.
The collaboration began with the production of critical components to meet ISRO’s needs, and then expanded to liquid propulsion engines.
In addition, Godrej Aerospace also had key contributions to Chandrayaan-1 and Chandrayaan-2 and Mangalyaan space missions, besides participating in ISRO’s other endeavours.
