In A 1st, India To Launch Its Big Communications Satellite On SpaceX Rocket

The Indian space agency will rely on SpaceX to launch its next generation heavy communications satellite named GSAT-20.

www.ndtv.com

GSAT-20, much awaited, India's most advanced communication satellite will be launched by SpaceX's Falcon 9 in a dedicated mission.

Thought it will be launched by LVM3 with semi cryo, but that is far away. Even initial claim of 70 gbps is now lowered to 48. No EPS as well. Still most advanced sat by ISRO.

Space is no longer harder as it used to be with the help of modern computers & electronics & AI

Private companies(if they're well funded & experienced) can put a lander on Moon or Mars or even send humans to space and build space stations.

Times have changed.

We're lucky to live in a great era.

static ground tests . correct me if am wrong but only flight test with one so far has been done by the russians and it blew up spreading radioactive fuel .

 

[Lonewolf]

Hw nuclear will generate propulsion??

Heat from fission+ liquid propellant turned gaseous= thrust

remember seeing it on NASA vids ,
