ISRO gears up for transformative missions in 2024, exploring Earth, Mars, Venus, and the cosmos. Here's the complete list:
ISRO said the Solar Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (SUIT) on board the Aditya-L1 has successfully captured the first full-disk images of the Sun in ultraviolet range.
The ISRO has confirmed that its Aditya-L1 mission spacecraft is healthy and on track to reach Sun-Earth Lagrange Point 1 (L1). A trajectory correction maneuver was performed to correct the spacecraft's path, and it is now headed towards a halo orbit around L1. The magnetometer will be turned on again in the coming days, and the spacecraft has already started collecting data to study the behavior of particles surrounding Earth. Aditya-L1 is equipped with seven different payloads to observe the Sun and measure plasma and magnetic fields.
The STEPS devices, part of the ASPEX payload aboard the Aditya L1 spacecraft has begun the study of energetic particles in the solar wind.
