\"Countdown<\/div>\n

Aditya L1 shall be placed in a halo orbit around Lagrange point 1 of Sun-Earth system<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

New Delhi: <\/b><\/p>\n

After the huge success of India’s moon mission, Chandrayaan-3, the country is now gearing up for another one but this time to the Sun<\/a>. The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is all set to launch its first space-based solar mission Aditya L1<\/a> on September 2 at 11.50 am from the Sriharikota spaceport in Andhra Pradesh.<\/p>\n

ISRO Chief S Somanath said the countdown for the Aditya-L1 launch will start today. “We are just getting ready for the launch. The rocket and satellite are ready. We completed the rehearsal for the launch,” he said.<\/p>\n

ISRO on its official X account, previously known as Twitter, said\u00a0that countdown leading to the launch has commenced.<\/p>\n

Aditya L1 shall be placed in a halo orbit around the Lagrange point 1 (L1)<\/a> of the Sun-Earth system, which is about 1.5 million km from the Earth. A satellite placed in the halo orbit around the L1 point has the major advantage of continuously viewing the Sun without any occultation\/eclipses.<\/p>\n

This will provide a greater advantage of observing the solar activities and its effect on space weather in real time.<\/p>\n

The suits of Aditya L1 payloads are expected to provide most crucial information to understand the problem of coronal heating, coronal mass ejection, pre-flare and flare activities and their characteristics, dynamics of space weather, propagation of particle and fields etc.<\/p>\n

On August 23, India became the first country to safely land a craft in the moon’s south pole region. The mission is ongoing, with ISRO saying its rover had confirmed the presence of sulphur, iron, oxygen and other elements on the moon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
