Bengaluru: India’s first solar mission, Aditya-L1, which isro Hoping to launch in late August or early September, it reaches the spaceport at Sriharikota.
Aditya-L1, India’s first space observatory to study the Sun, is preparing to launch Ur Rao Satellite Center (URSC), Bengaluru has reached SDSC-SHAR (spaceport) at Sriharikota,” Isro said.
The Aditya-L1 spacecraft will study a number of properties of the sun, such as the dynamics and origins of coronal mass ejections and its home – L1 or the first Lagrangian point in the Earth-Sun system – will allow it to roughly orbit the sun. Fixed distance from Earth, but without the planet obscuring its view of our star.
The spacecraft will always be in the same direction as the Sun from Earth. Therefore, when the Earth rotates, there is not a single ground station that is always visible to Aditya-L1. Using a global network of stations such as the ESA network is the best way to exchange data and commands with these spacecraft as closely as possible.
“We expect Aditya to be launched in late August,” President Isro Somanath told TOI earlier. He also said that the review committee recommended additional weight tests to gain confidence.
A few days after Chandrayaan-3’s launch, Sumanath told TOI that work to procure a launch vehicle, PSLV, is also underway and progressing smoothly.
Aditya-L1 will be located 1.5 million kilometers from Earth in a halo orbit around the L1 point, giving it an even greater advantage to observe solar activity and its impact on space weather in real time.
The spacecraft carries seven payloads to monitor the photosphere, chromosphere and outer layers of the sun (corona) using electromagnetic field detectors, particles and magnetometers. take a personal point of view [L1]Four payloads directly exposed to the Sun and three others are conducting in situ studies of particles and fields in L1, providing important scientific studies of the influence of solar scattering dynamics on the interplanetary medium,” according to Isro.
Aditya’s payload is expected to provide some of the most important information to understand the problems of coronal heating, coronal mass ejection, preflare and flare activity and their properties, space weather dynamics, particle scattering and fields, etc.
