The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) launched 36 low-earth orbit satellites for the UK-based OneWeb on Sunday, March 26. The satellites, which reached India on February 16 from the satellite manufacturing unit in Florida for integration with the Launch Vehicle Mark III, took off from the second launch pad at Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota.
We have lift off!
