ISRO says that Aditya-L1 will stay approximately 1.5 million km away from Earth, directed towards the Sun.
Aditya-L1 will neither land on the Sun nor approach the Sun any closer.
ISRO on Wednesday said that the launch rehearsal and vehicle internal checks were completed.
Indian Space Research Organisation’s Aditya L-1 is set to be launched from Satish Dhawan Space Centre.
The main objectives of the Aditya-L1 mission are to study the dynamics of the solar upper atmosphere (chromosphere and corona) and investigate heating mechanisms, plasma physics, and solar phenomena like coronal mass ejections and flares.
ISRO chief S Somanath said that it is an important launch and the satellite will take 125 days to reach the L1 point.
A visitor at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre said, “I’m thrilled to be here for the Aditya-L1 Mission launch. Chandrayaan-3’s successful landing sparked our interest in space events.”
According to the Programming Manager at Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru Planetarium, the Aditya L1 mission will provide India with valuable observations of the Sun.
Former ISRO Chairman G Madhavan Nair said that this solar mission is very important.
The Aditya-L1 mission is all set to be launched by the PSLV-C57 rocket from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota.
What is Aditya L1?
Aditya-L1 is the first space-based Indian observatory to study the Sun. ISRO said that the Aditya L1 spacecraft/PSLV-C57 rocket is designed to provide remote observations of the solar corona and in situ observations of the solar wind at L1 (Sun-Earth Lagrangian point), which is about 1.5 million kilometres from the Earth.
Will Aditya L1 land on Sun?
Aditya-L1 will neither land on the Sun nor approach the Sun any closer.
Where Aditya L1 will land?
The spacecraft will go into a special orbit around a point called L1, which is about 1.5 million km from Earth and located between the Earth and the Sun.
How Aditya L1 will work?
