Aditya L1

The first Indian space-based observatory-class solar mission to unlock the


mysteries of the Sun
Distance
1.5 million KM from the Earth,
about 4 times further than the moon

Trajectory to L1
The Aditya-L1 mission will be launched by
ISRO's PSLV XL rocket from Satish Dhawan
Space Centre SHAR (SDSC-SHAR),
Sriharikota. Initially, the spacecraft will be
placed in a Low Earth Orbit. Subsequently, the
orbit will be made more elliptical and later the
spacecraft will be launched towards the
Lagrange point (L1) by using onboard
propulsion.

Major Science Objectives
The primary objectives of Aditya-L1 include studying solar winds, which can disrupt Earth's magnetosphere and manifest as awe-
inspiring "auroras." Over the long term, data gathered from this mission could contribute to a deeper understanding of the Sun's
influence on Earth's climate patterns.

Parts Magnetometer
An instrument will study the solar energetic particles' flux reaching the
L1 orbit, while a magnetometer payload will measure the variation in
magnetic field strength at the halo orbit around L1
Launch Vehicle
The Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) is an expendable
medium-lift launch vehicle designed and operated by the Indian
Space Research Organization (ISRO). It was developed to allow
India to launch its Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) satellites into
sun-synchronous orbits, a service that was, until the advent of the
PSLV in 1993, only commercially available from Russia. PSLV
can also launch small size satellites into Geostationary Transfer
Orbit

PSLV-C57 Height : 44 m (144 ft)

Diameter : 2.8 m (9 ft 2 in)

Trajectory
The second Earth-bound maneuvre (EBN#2) is performed successfully from ISTRAC, Bengaluru. ISTRAC/ISRO's ground
stations at Mauritius, Bengaluru and Port Blair tracked the satellite during this operation. The new orbit attained is 282 km x
40225 km. The next maneuvre (EBN#3) is scheduled for September 10, 2023, around 02:30 Hrs. IST
