Manastu Space Technologies, a Mumbai-based deeptech startup, has achieved a significant milestone by delivering its iBooster Green Propulsion System to the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) in India. The system, developed after four years of rigorous research supported by DR's Technology Development Fund, is tailored for 100-500 kg satellites and facilitates critical operations like orbit raising, station-keeping, and deorbiting. It utilizes a proprietary hydrogen peroxide-based fuel, ensuring improved performance, safety, and sustainability compared to traditional toxic fuels. The iBooster system incorporates several innovative features, including an optimized thruster design for efficiency, precision, and high-temperature catalyst technology for long-term space performance. Co-founder Tushar Jadhav expressed pride in achieving this milestone, emphasizing the startup's dedication to creating greener and safer solutions for space exploration. DRDO acknowledged the transformative potential of Indian startups like Manastu Space in deep tech, supporting India's defense and satellite capabilities. Established in 2017 by Tushar Jadhav and Ashtesh Kumar, Manastu Space Technologies leads in space innovation, focusing on propulsion systems and satellite technology. The startup is gearing up for a significant space test during an upcoming PSLV mission by ISRO to showcase the capabilities of its system on a larger platform.
