Excited to announce the triumphant 200-second fire-endurance test of our enhanced, fully 3D-printed 'Dhawan-II' Cryogenic engine that will power the upper stage of Vikram-2.
This is a major milestone for our cryogenic program, fuelling the accelerated development of Vikram series to orbit.

By โfree speechโ, I simply mean that which matches the law.
I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law.

Therefore, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people.
In principle, I donโt believe anyone should own or run Twitter. It wants to be a public good at a protocol level, not a company. Solving for the problem of it being a company however, Elon is the singular solution I trust. I trust his mission to extend the light of consciousness.
