In 16 mins, Chandrayaan-3 launch was proclaimed a success

In 16 minutes, the Chandrayaan-3 launch was proclaimed a success. Now we have to wait 40 days to see if India’s third Moon mission will be a success. Isro’s LVM-3 lifted off from Sriharikota at 2.35pm amidst roars and applause from 10,000-odd spectators at the spaceport — and millions who watched the livestream. At 3.01pm, the “mooncraft” was in a precise transfer orbit of 36,500km x 170km
