#Space #Defence #India . Here's my take on why GoI, Isro & stakeholders must prioritise space-based surveillance (#SBS) & more. It isn’t about militarising space but ensuring India’s strategic autonomy. Defence-space capability is not a future luxury. It's a present necessity!

The breakthrough came with the successful completion of the first high-penetration weld on the actual sphere hardware. This involved 80 mm thick welds over a 7,100 mm length, achieved in a continuous 32-minute operation, “a national first in scale and precision” as per Isro. 11/n.
