Explained: All you need to know about the Isro Aditya-L1 mission
While Chandrayaan-3 gets closer to the moon, and is scheduled to land on 23 August, the Indian Space Research Organisation is also getting ready to reach the sun. The spacecraft is expected to be placed in a halo orbit around the Lagrange point 1 of the Sun-Earth systems, which is about 1.5 million kilometres from the Earth, according to Isro’s official website. The spacecraft will carry seven payloads to observe the Sun’s outermost layers – including the photosphere, chromosphere, and the outermost layers – using electromagnetic and particle and magnetic field detectors. This mission aims to understand the coronal heating and solar wind acceleration as well as initiation of coronal mass ejection, flares, and near-earth weather, according to Isro.
