The Aditya-L1 spacecraft has successfully completed its first halo orbit at Lagrange Point 1, approximately 1.5 million km from Earth. The Aditya-L1 spacecraft took 178 days to complete one revolution around the L1 point in its halo orbit. On July 2, 2024, the Aditya-L1 spacecraft successfully completed its third station-keeping manoeuvre, ensuring that it continues its travel in the second …
The final moments before the entry of Aditya L1 into the Halo orbit, were filled with anxiety, however there was a surety about the mission's success, said ISRO chief S Somanath after the successfull insertion of Aditya L1 near the Lagrange point on Saturday. On the successful completion of the journey of ISRO's satellite near the Sun, Somanath said, “So …
ISRO Chief S Somanath on Aditya L1's Success: In a recent update on ISRO's Solar Mission, Aditya-L1, ISRO Chairman S Somanath provided insights into the spacecraft's successful entry into the precise Halo orbit. He mentioned that although there were some corrections needed during the move toward the high orbit, the current calculations suggest Aditya-L1 is in the right position. "Today's …
Aditya L1, the Indian spacecraft is reportedly moving towards a crucial phase as it prepares for insertion into the halo orbit around Lagrange Point 1, a gravitational equilibrium position which is between the Sun and the Earth. Aditya L1 has undergone a series of Earth-bound orbital manoeuvres to align its trajectory for a successful transfer orbit towards L1. Significance of …
