SpaceX successfully launched the Optus 11 satellite Sunday night from Cape Canaveral and is set to follow up with the GSAT-20 mission Monday afternoon.

This is also the first time ISRO has developed a satellite that only uses the advanced Ka-band frequency, which has a range of radio frequencies between 27 and 40 gigahertz (GHz) and allows the satellite to have a higher bandwidth.

The GSAT-20, a 4,700 kg satellite, exceeds the weight capacity of India’s indigenous rockets, making SpaceX the natural choice for the mission

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is set to launch its GSAT-N2 communication satellite aboard a SpaceX Falcon-9 rocket from Cape Canaveral on November 18, 2024. This marks ISRO's first launch with SpaceX and aims to bolster broadband services and in-flight connectivity across India with the satellite's 48 Gbps data transmission capacity.

A SpaceX rocket launch is scheduled for liftoff, and depending on weather and cloud cover, it may be visible from Daytona, New Smyrna, Ormond Beach.
