If I read correctly, this is now the most watched live video on YouTube! Congratulations to India and the team on this fantastic feat of an achievement.

I thought it was 8M earlier. I didn't see this cross 6M though.

It definitely crossed 8M, but not sure if it crossed the previous highest (Felix Baumgartner freefall) which is also around 8M.

Which is disappointing. India should have their own video sharing/livestream platform.

I mean, it's video streaming, it's not as easy as rocket science and orbital dynamics.

Why?

Economic development? Control over your own media? Surely this is not a serious question. Heck, controlling your own media and tech stack is far more important to a country like india than landing probes on the moon. Ideally india should do both. Not sure why they are lagging so far behind in the tech sector when so much of the tech industry is powered by indians.
