ISRO Successfully Launches Heaviest Communication Satellite from India

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) successfully launched its heaviest communication satellite, CMS-03, from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota. The satellite was carried aboard the LVM3-M5 rocket, India's heavylift launch vehicle. This marks a significant milestone as it is the heaviest satellite ISRO has launched into Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit from Indian soil. The multi-band CMS-03 satellite is designed to enhance communication services over the Indian mainland and a wide oceanic region, bolstering the country's space infrastructure.
