Yes, space. 🌌 The ‘Cosmic Bloom’; crafted from 32 pear-cut diamonds (16.95 carats total) and 11 grams of pure gold; hitched a ride on Skyroot’s Vikram-1 rocket. And it didn’t just survive the launch; it sparkled in orbit, proving these diamonds aren’t just for weddings… they’re space-grade. What makes this wild? This wasn’t a NASA mission. It was a private Indian startup, paired with Surat’s master jewellers, who spent 6 months hand-setting every diamond. And it’s valued at over ₹10 lakh. Why a lotus? Not just for beauty. The lotus is sacred; purity, resilience, creation. Sending it to space? A quiet cultural statement. India’s heritage, riding rockets. Big picture? Surat; yes, the same city known for textiles and diamond cutting; is now on the global map for high-tech, precision engineering. This could open doors for diamond tech in aerospace, sensors, even satellite components. The next time someone says ‘India only exports cheap diamonds’, show them this. We’re not just cutting stones. We’re launching them into the cosmos.
