Aditya-L1 is a coronagraphy spacecraft to study the solar atmosphere

The objective of Aditya L1 mission is to study Sun's Corona, Chromosphere and Photosphere
Launched on 2 September
Launch site : Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh.
Developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)
Aditya, means "Sun“ (In sanskrit)
L1 means : Lagrange point (L1 is 1.5 Million Km from the Earth).
It will be orbiting at about 1.5 million km from Earth in a halo orbit around the L1 Lagrange point between
the Earth and the Sun
It will take approximately 125 days to reach the L1 point.
Mission duration 5.2 years
Spacecraft used : PSLV-XL/C-57
Payload mass 244 kg
Weight of the Aditya L1 satellite : 400 Kg
Payloads which have been used for the mission:
❖Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC)
❖Solar Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (SUIT)
L1: L1 is considered the most
❖Aditya Solar wind Particle Experiment (ASPEX)
significant of the Lagrange points
❖Plasma Analyser Package for Aditya
for solar observations
❖Solar Low Energy X-ray Spectrometer (SoLEXS)
❖High Energy L1 Orbiting X-ray Spectrometer (HEL1OS)
L2: Positioned directly 'behind'
❖Magnetometer
Earth as viewed from the Sun, L2
is excellent for observing the
larger Universe without Earth's
shadow interference.

L3: Positioned behind the Sun,

opposite Earth, and just beyond
Earth's orbit

L4 and L5: Objects at L4 and L5

maintain stable positions,
forming an equilateral triangle
with the two larger bodies.

Aditya L1 mission originally

announced : 2008
(Named : Aditya-1)

It will also measure the variation

in magnetic field strength at the
halo orbit
around L1.

The primary objective of Aditya-L1 is to gain a deeper understanding of the Sun's behavior, including
its radiation, heat, particle flow, and magnetic fields, and how they impact Earth.

Chandrayaan-1 : First Indian lunar probe under the
Chandrayaan programme.
It was launched by ISRO on 22 October 2008, and operated
until August 2009.
Chandrayaan-2 : Launched on 22 July 2019, Orbital insertion 20 August
2019. On 06 Sep 2019, Trajectory deviation started at 2.1 km
altitude, telemetry was lost seconds before touchdown, Lander failure,
rover was not deployed. (On 16 November 2019, the Failure Analysis
Committee released its report to the Space Commission, concluding
that the crash was caused by a software glitch)
