India’s Solar Mission - Aditya
If 2019 was all about the Moon for Indian space agency ISRO, year 2020 could well be about the Sun.
In his Mann Ki Baat address on Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke about the ISRO’s plans to launch its first Sun Mission Aditya L1
This ambitious plan of the Indian Space Research Organisation will not only put India in a very elite league, but also at the very frontier of cutting edge research.
With Aditya L1, ISRO will take a huge step forward in the study of solar corona.
The solar Corona is the outer most part of the Sun’s atmosphere. It is usually hidden by the bright light of the Sun's surface
The 400 KG-Class Aditya L1 will carry six scientific payloads that will be inserted in a halo orbit around the Lagrangian point 1 or L1, Incidentally L1 is 1.5 million kilometres from the Earth.
Our focus today will be all about the impending Sun Mission of ISRO. We will also look at some of the prominent missions undertaken so far to unravel the mysteries of Solar space. And also the journey of ISRO itself.
