Experience the thrill of India's midnight space launch with the incredible videos of the GSLVMK3 spacecraft taking off from Sriharikota.

GSLVMK3 Spacecraft Launch Captured On Old Videos Goes Viral Again
The launch of the rocket was carried out in Andra Pradesh¡¯s Sriharikota. Given the scale of the operation, the incredible view was captured by many people who were part of the audience that was seated at a safe distance from the launch.
In the clip, a gash of orange light fills up the dark midnight skyline of the state. The launch of the heaviest rocket Vehicle Mark 3 (LVM3 or GSLV Mark 3) took off from the second launch pad of the Satish Dhawan Space Centre SHAR, Sriharikota at 12:07 am.
The launch was not just a big deal because of the spacecraft¡¯s size but also because it marked the first-ever dedicated commercial launch for NewSpace India Limited in partnership with a UK-based firm OneWeb.

The Video Going Viral Was Taken From The Viewer's Gallery At The Launch
The video once again going viral on the internet was taken from the viewer¡¯s gallery of the launch. In the clip, a lot of people sit at the bleachers while a big LED screen televises the real-time closeup of the launch.
The excitement of the crowd in the video is apparent as the background music from the hit film ¡®Kantara¡¯ plays out to amplify the goosebumps felt by the people in the audience at the moment.
People online too enjoyed the video and were moved by the launch. One user wanted to get access to the seats of the viewing gallery, ¡°Please advise on how to witness this? Do we need to book any tickets prior or just walk in? Google location of this place.¡±
