India's most advanced communications satellite was successfully lifted off into space by Elon Musk's SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket which launched from Cape Canaveral in Florida, USA.

This is also the first time ISRO has developed a satellite that only uses the advanced Ka-band frequency, which has a range of radio frequencies between 27 and 40 gigahertz (GHz) and allows the satellite to have a higher bandwidth.

India is gearing up for the highly anticipated launch of its most advanced broadband communications satellite, GSAT-20, also known as GSAT N-2.

N2, is too heavy for Isro's own rockets to carry, necessitating the first-ever commercial collaboration between Isro and SpaceX.

A Falcon 9 rocket carrying ISRO's GSAT-N2 communications satellite lifted off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station today at 1:31 p.m. EST (1831 GMT). It was the third launch in less than 24 hours for Elon Musk's company.
