Pawan Kumar Chandana is an IIT Kharagpur Alumnus, Former ISRO Scientist and co-founder and CEO of Skyroot Aerospace Private Limited. Here he shares his vision of starting one of the first Indian private space organisations and the ambition with which the company runs today. He has discussed the upcoming Rockets that are under development and openly shares their recruitment process. The Podcast is hosted by Ashish Ranjan who is an Author, ex-ISRO scientist, and ex-BARC Scientist. He has spent the past 5 years writing a book on his experience of getting selected and working in India's Nuclear program and how he worked his way up into India's space program despite his poor academic background. Ashish had scored 53/100 in Mathematics and 61/100 in Physics on his 12th boards. He had even failed Physics in his 11th Standard. Ashish never got admitted to top universities for his B.Tech. like IITs or NITs. Yet, he made his way into India's two of the largest research organizations as a Scientist. He has recently published a Book, "The Boy Who Did Not Sign" which is a fictional story inspired by a true event in Ashish's life in BARC. The book is about pursuing a dream career despite our limitations and disadvantages, about relationship dynamics we all face, about doing the right thing, and much more! The Boy Who Did Not Sign is now published worldwide (Paperback + eBook). ––––––––––––––––––– 📙 GET A COPY of the BOOK: https://amzn.eu/d/2YQzUxi ____________________________________ Pawan Kumar Chandana (Guest): 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/skyrootaerospace 🜸 Website: https://skyroot.in/ 🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@skyrootaerospace9787 🖇 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pawan-kumar-chandana-a90b6514 🐥 Twitter: https://twitter.com/PawanKChandana Ashish Ranjan (Host): 📸 Instagram: Personal: @ashish_torq | https://www.instagram.com/ashish_torq/ ART Podcast: @ashishranjantalks | https://www.instagram.com/ashishranjantalks/ 🜸 Website: https://ashishtorq.com 🎥 For podcast clips: https://www.youtube.com/@AshishRanjantalks 📘 Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/ashishtorq 🖇 LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/ashishtorq 🐥 Twitter: https://twitter.com/ashishtorq 🕺🏻 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ashishtorq 📫 Join Torq Broadcast on Telegram for fastest updates: http://t.me/torqbroadcast ___________________________________________ ⭐️ Qualifications of Ashish Ranjan: ➡ Mechanical Engineer ➡ BARC 2017: Selected & Joined ➡ Degree in Nuclear Science & Engineering from BARC Training School ➡ Former Scientific Officer at the Department of Atomic Energy ➡ IIT Bombay RA AIR-10: Selected for Master in Mechanical Design ➡ Indian Space Research Organization 2018 AIR-4 ➡ Former ISRO scientist ➡ Podcasts: ART & Momentum ______________________________ Intro 0:00 1.
