India's solar mission, Aditya L1, has begun studying energetic particles in the solar wind from space. STEPS has been functioning from within the Earth's magnetic field since September 10, and will continue to collect data on energetic particles during its four-month journey to the L1 point. The data collected will help understand space weather changes and improve the performance of space assets.
India's space agency, ISRO, is preparing to launch its first polarimetry mission, XPoSat, by the end of the year. The mission will study bright astronomical X-ray sources and provide vital information on the nature and behaviour of celestial objects. XPoSat is India's first space mission to measure the polarisation of light and will help scientists understand emissions from black holes, neutron stars, and other challenging astronomical sources. The mission will carry two payloads, POLIX and XSPECT, to measure polarimetry parameters and provide spectroscopic information. This will be the second polarimetry mission in the world, following NASA's IXPE mission. | Latest News India

Indian scientists are preparing to embark on Project Samudrayaan, an ambitious mission to explore the depths of the ocean in search of precious metals and minerals. The project involves the use of a homegrown submersible called "Matsya 6000," which has been in development for two years. The submersible is designed to withstand the immense pressure at a depth of 6,000 meters and will be tested in early 2024.
