Sunday evening. Team working full speed ahead on the satellites. Even after relentless day and night work the past few days. Probably that’s what it takes to build cutting edge hardware. To make a dent in the universe. Super proud and super honoured to get to work with the amazing bunch @PixxelSpace. We can’t wait to show you the exquisite images from these when they launch.
In this edition of Athera's Odyssey, dive deeper into Deepak Shenoy's view on the recent RBI moves, Savaari success saga, VuNet Systems and a few interesting reads for the long weekend ahead of you!
