Context:
The Indian Space and Research Association has announced the second set of scientific data released by ISRO‘s solar observation mission Aditya L1, providing crucial information regarding the Sun’s photosphere, chromosphere, and corona, as well as in situ particle and magnetic field measurements at the first Earth Sun Lagrange Point (L1).
The Scientific Journey of Aditya L1
- Launch Date: September 2, 2023 using PSLV C 57.
- Insertion in Halo Orbit: January 6, 2024, in Lagrange Point (L1), at 1.5 million km from the Earth toward the Sun.
- Current Status: It has been in its third revolution around L1, continuously observing the Sun.
The mission serves as a treasure trove of data for solar parameter studies and helps augment the understanding of solar activity, space weather, and their effect on Earth.
