Hoping to see the launch go well. And all the best to the team, ISRO Chairman S Somanath said in a recorded message available to the media.

Since the satellite weighed 4,700 kg and was too heavy for Indian rockets to carry, it necessitated a foreign commercial launch.

The launch pad has been hired by SpaceX from the US Space Force. The mission life of GSAT-N2 is 14 years.

This is the first time that ISRO is launching a satellite on a SpaceX rocket through its commercial arm New Space India Limited (NSIL).
