The Indian Space Research Organisation is getting ready to launch Aditya L1, the nation’s first Sun mission, within the next 14 days following the success of the Chandrayaan 3 mission. Nilesh M. Desai, director of the Space Applications Centre (SAC), Ahmedabad, speculated on Saturday that the launch would occur on September 2.
from SDSC-SHAR in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh, the satellite that was launched from the UR Rao Satellite Centre (URSC), Bengaluru, has arrived and is set up for launch.
“We have an Aditya-L1 mission planned to examine the Sun. It is prepared and set up on the launch pad; a launch on September 2 is possible.
Real-time monitoring of the effects of solar activity on space weather is one of the mission’s main goals. ISRO stated that it wanted to learn more about the issues associated with “coronal heating, coronal mass ejection, pre-flare and flare activities and their characteristics, dynamics of space weather, propagation of particles and fields, etc.” through the project.
