Mission Aagaman. From the inside. 🚀

The milestones.
The countdown.
The moment orbit was confirmed.
Two control centres. One heartbeat.

To everyone who built, tested, and believed — this one is yours.

We’ve come back to these views more times than we can count. 🚀

On 18th July, Vikram-1 lifted off the First Launch Pad at Sriharikota — and India became the third country in the world with private orbital launch capability.

Mission Aagaman is a grand success — and only the beginning.

Many of India’s space industry firsts. Rolled into one rocket. 🚀

The first picture of lift-off, straight from the launchpad cameras. 🚀

T-0 — 12:05 PM IST, 18 July 2026. Vikram-1 lifted off from the First Launch Pad at Sriharikota.

India’s first private orbital rocket ignited its Stage 1 Kalam 1200 motor and climbed — the opening seconds of Mission Aagaman.

Sunrise from orbit. 🌅

This was Vikram-1’s view as the Sun rose behind its Orbital Adjustment Module — moments after India’s first privately developed rocket delivered its payloads to their target orbit on its maiden flight.

The dawn of a new space era. Mission Aagaman is a grand success. 🚀🇮🇳

One of the most meaningful outcomes of Mission Aagaman was the trust our customers and partners placed in us.

Vikram-1’s maiden flight successfully deployed Grahaa Space’s SOLARAS satellite and Skyroot’s own SCOPE technology-demonstration satellite, while carrying in-orbit experiments from Cosmoserve Space and DCUBED.

The mission also carried Cosmos Diamonds’ Cosmic Bloom diamond, along with micro-artist Ajay Kumar’s extraordinary creations—a microscopic 18K gold rocket and intricate micro-sculptures honouring Dr. Vikram Sarabhai, Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam and Sir C.V. Raman. A tribute to India’s scientific legacy, carried into space alongside the mission.

Here’s to many more missions. 🚀 by @skyrootaerospace

In a beautiful coincidence, today—the day after our launch—marks Skyroot’s eighth anniversary. It started with a simple yet audacious belief that India's private sector could build its own way to orbit. 🚀

From Vikram-S becoming India's first private rocket to reach space in 2022, to Vikram-1 reaching orbit and successfully deploying satellites on its maiden flight in 2026 — every milestone has been carried by one of the youngest teams in the business.

The first eight years took us from a first idea to orbit. The journey from 8 to ∞ is just getting started.

Exactly 24 hours ago, a rocket lifted off.
Today, a billion+ dreams have taken flight. 🇮🇳🚀

Reliving the launch—from lift-off to satellite separation. Reaching orbit on the very first attempt of a new launch vehicle is an incredibly rare feat globally.

The world now has a new launch vehicle.

From India, for the world. 🚀

We’ll be watching this ignition on loop all day.

Kalam-1200 — Vikram-1's first stage, named for Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam — roaring to life and lifting Vikram-1 off the pad, on a flight that reached orbit.

Signed by the people who built it. 🚀

Every signature on Vikram-1 belongs to an engineer, technician, or teammate who helped make this mission possible.

Now, they’re all headed to space aboard Mission Aagaman.
