How will India's heaviest rocket 'GSLV MK III' help ISRO?
ISRO on Monday successfully launched India's heaviest and most powerful rocket Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) Mark III. The rocket is designed to carry up to 4-tonne payloads to geostationary transfer orbit and 10-tonne to low-Earth orbit reducing India's reliance on foreign carriers for payloads over 2.2 tonnes. The rocket could be used to launch Indians into space, ISRO said.
