  • The 3,423kg GSAT-29, Baahubali's payload for Wednesday's mission, is India's 33rd communications satellite.

    The satellite will help provide internet connectivity, especially to remote areas in the North East and Jammu and Kashmir.

    Additionally, the GSAT-29 has "unique" high-resolution camera on-board, specifically designed to help Indian defense forces track the movement of enemy ships in the Indian ocean.

    The 640-ton, 43m tall rocket is India's most powerful, runs on an indigenously developed cryogenic engine, and is capable of carrying payloads of 4,000kg into the Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit, and 10,000kg into the Low Earth Orbit.
