Interview | 'Aditya L1 won't crash-land but… ': Expert on challenges in entering final orbit
The Indian Space Research Organisation is set to execute a key manoeuvre on Saturday, where it will command thrusters to fire and position the Aditya L1 spacecraft, India's first space-based solar observatory, into its designated orbit approximately 15 lakh kilometres away from Earth. • On September 19, Aditya L1 undertook a manoeuvre to beat Earth's gravity and leave its sphere of influence to move towards the Lagrangian point. What's ISRO's game plan to get Aditya L1 into its final orbit at 4 pm Saturday? Aditya L1's thrusters play a crucial role in maintaining the spacecraft's attitude and orbital control, ensuring it stays in the halo orbit.
