Around 10.42 am on May 29, a three-staged GSLV rocket carrying the 2,232 kg NVS-01 satellite, part of the Indian satellite navigation system NavIC, was launched from Sriharikota.
The powerful GSLV rocket, which had three stages, stood tall at a height of 51.7 meters and weighed a staggering 420 tons. At 10.42 a.m., it took off into the sky, successfully escaping the strong pull of Earth's gravity.
The launch of the SpaceX Crew-6 to the International Space Station was scrapped minutes before it was set to lift-off Monday morning due to a ground systems issue.
