ISRO All Set To Put Aditya-L1 Spacecraft In Its Final Destination Orbit Today:
ISRO is preparing to launch the Aditya-L1 spacecraft, the first space-based Indian observatory to study the Sun, into its final destination orbit, 1.5 million kilometres from Earth, on Saturday.
According to ISRO officials, the spacecraft will be placed in a halo orbit around the Sun-Earth system's Lagrange point 1 (L1), approximately 1.5 million kilometres from Earth. The L1 point represents about 1% of the total distance between the Earth and the Sun.
They stated that a satellite in a halo orbit around the L1 point has the major advantage of continuously viewing the Sun without any occultations/eclipses, which will provide a greater advantage in observing solar activities and their effect on space weather.
"This manoeuvre (around 4 p.m. on Saturday) will lock the Aditya-L1 into a halo orbit around L1." If we don't do this, it may continue its journey, possibly towards the Sun," an ISRO official told PTI on Friday.
On September 2, last year, the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C57) launched the Aditya-L1 spacecraft from the second launch pad of the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC), Sriharikota.
It was successfully injected into an elliptical orbit of 235x19500 km around the Earth after a flight duration of 63 minutes and 20 seconds.
