I’m thrilled to announce the sequel to Liftoff, titled REENTRY, will be published on September 24. This book picks up the story where Liftoff left off, taking readers on a wild ride aboard the Falcon 9, Dragon, Heavy, and so much more.

@LachlanWall01 @user9980788 @full_starship Starship and NGLV shouldn't be compared. But if NGLV is obsolete then so are Vulcan, Terran R, Neutron. It is not like Starship will be the only working operational rocket, there is space for everyone in the market.
English

In 1-2 years Starship will be operational, your NGLV won't stand a chance against it. Don't even try to think Indian launchers are better then what they are.
Starship:
120m tall
9m wide
2 stages
Fully reusable
200 tons to LEO (300 expended)
8800 ton thrust
1100m² payload Bay
Super heavy lift vehicle
Can go to Mars with 100tons and return while being fully reusable
Will take people back to the moon in 2027
Has flown twice now
~$1500/kg going down to ~100/kg
NGLV:
75m tall
5m wide
3 stages
Partially reusable
20 tons to LEO
200 ton thrust
Medium-heavy lift vehicle
Only goes to GTO with 10 tons
Launches I'm 2030.
Bro your Indian launcher is not going to beat Starship. Look at the facts before you say nonsense
You also fail to realise that the Ce-20 also isn't that good. Okay yes it has an ISP of 434, it's thrust (Newton's 'N') is only 196,500, while SpaceX Raptor engine has an ISP of 350 and a thrust of 2,640,00 N. The CE-20 only has 60 Bar, while Raptor has 350 Bar. The CE-20 also weighs 588kg while Raptor weighs 1600kg, so yours is a lighter engine, how ever Raptor has a TWR of 168 and CE-20 has a TWR of 34.1. So your CE-20 also isn't the best either, not even in Thrust like you claimed it to be.
Maybe you should do some research child. I laid it out flat to you that NGLV is not going to kick SpaceX out of Commerical market, if anything it'll tske an inny bitty little tint nibble, even then that's pushing it, I don't see NGLV being proposed to launch people to Mars and get launched 3 times a day while being fully and rapidly reusable.
Sit down, eat some yoghurt, go cry about.

@Kumarptheonly @ThamikJ No, plus I didn't pick out this list I made a list of over 150 tockets and ran it through Chat GPT to get 32, then randomised the order of it.
English

@ThamikJ The list was randomised, I didn't hand pick them. I've said before that I rushed it.
English

@LachlanWall01 Bruv you've literally added 2 starships, 3 falcons, 2 FHs 💀
English

@ThamikJ I didn't mean to not add any, there is none as I had over 150 rockets and have to get rid of a lot.

Chandrayaan-3 Mission:
🇮🇳Vikram soft-landed on 🌖, again!
Vikram Lander exceeded its mission objectives. It successfully underwent a hop experiment.
On command, it fired the engines, elevated itself by about 40 cm as expected and landed safely at a distance of 30 – 40 cm away.
Importance?: This 'kick-start' enthuses future sample return and human missions!
All systems performed nominally and are healthy. Deployed Ramp, ChaSTE and ILSA were folded back and redeployed successfully after the experiment.

Chandrayaan-3 Mission:
Smile, please📸!
Pragyan Rover clicked an image of Vikram Lander this morning.
The 'image of the mission' was taken by the Navigation Camera onboard the Rover (NavCam).
NavCams for the Chandrayaan-3 Mission are developed by the Laboratory for Electro-Optics Systems (LEOS)
