India successfully launched its maiden solar expedition, the Aditya L1 mission
The Aditya L1 mission, India’s first solar expedition, was successfully launched by ISRO’s PSLV rocket. Following the successful Chandrayaan-3 lunar expedition, this mission intends to investigate the sun from the Sun-Earth Lagrangian point (L1), roughly 1.5 million km from Earth. Without eclipses, the L1 location allows for uninterrupted viewing of the sun.
The spacecraft will transmit data to Earth via seven payloads, the most important of which is the Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC). It will take around 1,440 solar images every day for analysis. The propulsion system, particularly the Liquid Apogee Motor (LAM), is critical in achieving the desired orbit.
According to experts, India’s ambitious Aditya-L1 mission represents the country’s first entrance into space-based solar studies and promises to deliver critical insights into the sun’s activity and its implications for the Earth.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) successfully launched its inaugural solar mission carrying seven payloads for a comprehensive study of the sun on Saturday, marking a big step forward for the country’s space research endeavours.
