It has been an extraordinary experience managing the 'Firefly' Program, leading to the launch of India's First Private Satellite Constellation!

I've spent the last ~4 years among the remarkable people @PixxelSpace. Here a 🧵on some interesting moments from our journey so far: Author in clean-room atitre, standing besides six shiny satellites, with a colorful container lid in the background. The final configuration for Firefly came after hundreds of iterations, thousands of individual parts, and tens of thousands of simulation and analysis hours!

It's crazy how we went from a design configuration freeze to satellites in space, in under a year!
