Elon Musk teams up with India for a groundbreaking satellite launch
India will launch its largest communication satellite, Gsat-20, using SpaceX's Falcon-9 rocket. The satellite, weighing 4,700 kg, exceeds the capacity of India's current launch vehicle. SpaceX was chosen due to the unavailability of Arianespace and the ongoing conflict with Russia. Gsat-20 will enhance India's communication infrastructure, supporting initiatives like Smart City and in-flight internet connectivity.
