Watch: Flyer Captures Majestic Chandrayaan-3 Launch Through Plane Window

On Friday, a passenger was lucky enough to witness the launch of ISRO's Chandrayaan-3 from a window seat on an Indigo aircraft between Chennai and Dhaka.

Even as the pilot announced the momentous occasion and asked people to look outside the window, this flyer on Indigo Flight was managed to film Chandrayaan-3's liftoff.

India has launched its third Moon mission, hoping to be the first to land near its little-explored south pole.

The Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft with an orbiter, lander, and a rover lifted off at 14:35 on Friday from Sriharikota space centre.

The lander is expected to reach the Moon by August 23 or 24.

If successful, India will join the elite group of countries to achieve a soft landing on the Moon. So far, only the United States, China, and the former Soviet Union have been able to complete successful lunar landings.

"When aviation meets astronomy! A passenger aboard IndiGo6E's Chennai-Dhaka flight has captured this beautiful liftoff of Chandrayaan-3," wrote The Chennai Skies while sharing the video on Twitter.

Since being posted, the video has garnered thousands of likes and it has left many netizens in awe of the passenger's photographic skills.

"How majestic! An amazing moment" commented a Twitter user.

"I trust this passenger had Extreme happiness witnessing the Rocket from that altitude. Thanks, buddy for capturing the rocket and
Chennai Flights for sharing" commented another

"The Videographer Plz come out...you have done a fantastic job," a third user commented.
