COMMUNICATIONS SATELLITE DESIGNED TO MEET CONNECTIVITY NEEDS OF REMOTE AREAS
-
IN A FIRST, India will launch a heavy communication satellite GSAT-20 on-board the Falcon-9 launch vehicle of Elon Musk's SpaceX, NewSpace India, the commercial arm of Isro, said on Wednesday.
The launch is scheduled for the second quarter of 2024, according to the statement by NewSpace India (NSIL).
For satellites weighing more than 4,000 kg, India so far depended on the European launch provider Arianespace.
However, its heavy launch vehicle Ariane5 was retired in July last year and its successor Ariane6 is yet to make its debut.
