India’s First Solar Mission Aditya L1 Launched SUCCESSFULLY From Satish Dhawan Space Centre

The PSLV-C57.1 rocket carrying the Aditya-L1 orbiter, India’s first solar mission, was successfully launched by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) on Saturday at 11.50 a.m. from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh. This solar-powered probe in space tries to learn more about solar winds, which can alter Earth’s magnetic field and result in auroras.

Aditya L1 Launched

The Aditya-L1 spacecraft, which takes its name from the Hindi word for the sun, is intended to travel roughly 1.5 million kilometers over four months to an area in space resembling a parking lot where items prefer to remain put due to balanced gravity pulls, saving fuel for the spacecraft. After the Italian-French mathematician Joseph-Louis Lagrange, these points are known as Lagrange Points.
