Aditya-L1: Know how much the ISRO mission will cost and check comparison with NASA

[ad_1] India is about to embark on yet another historic journey, this time to the Sun. Just a few days ago, India was in the news as the Chandrayaan-3 mission to the Moon was successful as it achieved a soft landing on the lunar South Pole, becoming the first in the world to do so. Now, with its solar mission named Aditya-L1, which is set to launch on September 2, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) hopes to unravel the mysteries of the Sun. The spacecraft, along with the PSLV-C57, is now being readied for the launch and has been rolled out onto the Launch Pad 2 of the Satish Dhawan Space Center in Sriharikota. ISRO Chairman S Somnath said, “We are just getting ready for the launch. The rocket and satellite are ready. We completed the rehearsal for the launch. So tomorrow, we ...

For the first time, India targets the Sun with ISRO’s Aditya-L1 mission

[ad_1] India's first mission to study the Sun will be launched by ISRO in 2023 and it has been dubbed the Aditya-L1. After several years of development, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is expected to launch Aditya-L1 this year. It will be the first space-based Indian mission to study the Sun. This rocket will be carried by the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV). Aditya-L1's instruments are programmed to observe the solar atmosphere, especially the chromosphere and corona. The payloads of Aditya L1 are expected to provide important information to understand the issues such as coronal heating, coronal mass ejection (CME), pre-solar flare and solar flare activities. The Aditya-L1 mission will also help reveal the dynamics of space weather, propagation of solar particles ...
