A Chennai-based aerospace company reported the successful demonstration of an in-flight rocket engine restart mechanism during Mission RHUMI TWIN 2026, which launched from the Thiruvidanthai coastline near Chennai on October 10. The RRR-1 engine initially operated for approximately nine seconds, was intentionally shut down for three seconds, and then reignited for another five seconds, completing a planned 17-second sequence. The technology is intended for reusable launch vehicles and satellite launch systems.
