Air India flight to London crashes moments after take-off in Ahmedabad.
Air India said that the flight—AI171—(A B787)was heading to London's Gatwick from Ahmedabad. There were 242 passengers onboard

According to officials said that the flight took off at 1.38 pm and crashed within five minutes.There were 242 people on board the aircraft, consisting of 2 pilots and 10 cabin crew. The aircraft was under the command of Capt Sumeet Sabharwal with First Officer Clive Kundar.

Houston-based startup Venus Aerospace has achieved a historic milestone by completing the first U.S. flight test of a Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE) at Spaceport America, New Mexico. This game-changing success propels us closer to the era of hypersonic flight from standard runways, aiming for Mach 4 to Mach 6 speeds.

The RDRE is smaller, more efficient, and more cost-effective than traditional rocket engines. It’s engineered to work alongside Venus’s air-breathing detonation ramjet, allowing for sustained hypersonic cruise without boosters. This revolutionary tech is the foundation for their future hypersonic passenger aircraft, the Stargazer M4.

Venus Aerospace joins the ranks of forward-thinking U.S. aerospace startups—like Anduril, Hermeus, Castelion, Ursa Major, and Kratos Defense—all pushing boundaries in hypersonic innovation as the U.S. keeps its edge in the global aerospace race.
