ADITYA-L1
UPDATES
*ADITYA L1 LANCH SUCCESSFULLY ACCOMPLISHED 🎊
*ADITIYA L1 STARTED ITS TRAVEL TOWARDS L1 {LAGRANGE POINT} FOR APPROXIMATELY 120 - 125 DAYS TO REACH.
Aditya L1 will be India's first space-based mission to study the Sun. The spacecraft will be positioned in a halo orbit around the Sun-Earth system's Lagrange point 1 (L1), approximately 1.5 million kilometers from Earth. A satellite in a halo orbit around the L1 point has the significant benefit of continuously viewing the Sun with no occultation/eclipses. This will give us a better chance of seeing solar activity and its impact on space weather in real-time. The spacecraft includes seven payloads that will use electromagnetic, particle, and magnetic field detectors to study the photosphere, chromosphere, and the Sun's outermost layers (the corona). Four payloads directly observe the Sun from the exceptional vantage point L1, while the remaining three payloads conduct in-situ particle and field studies at the Lagrange point L1, offering essential scientific studies of the propagation effect of solar dynamics in the interplanetary medium.
The Aditya L1 payload suites are intended to offer critical information for understanding the problem of coronal heating, coronal mass ejection, pre-flare, and flare activities and their characteristics, dynamics of space weather, particle and field propagation, and so on.
