Aditya-L1 mission: ISRO reveals health status of India's landmark solar project

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) took to X and provided an update on the health of the Aditya-L1 spacecraft.

ISRO confirms that the Aditya-L1 spacecraft is "healthy" and en route to the Sun-Earth Lagrange Point 1 (L1).

Earlier, Aditya-L1 executed a trajectory correction manoeuvre (TCM) for 16 seconds to ensure it's on the right path.

The TCM was necessary to adjust the trajectory after the Trans-Lagrangean Point 1 Insertion (TL1I) manoeuvre on September 19, 2023.

TCM ensured Aditya-L1's path toward the Halo orbit insertion around L1.

ISRO plans to reactivate the spacecraft's magnetometer in a few days.

Aditya-L1 has achieved four earth-bound manoeuvres and a Trans-Lagrangean Point 1 Insertion (TL1I) manoeuvre.

Escaping Earth's Sphere of Influence: The spacecraft has successfully escaped the sphere of Earth's influence.

Aditya-L1 Mission Objectives: ISRO aims to provide remote observations of the solar corona and in-situ observations of the solar wind at L1, aiding scientists in analysing Earth's particle behaviour.
