Aditya-L1 is the first space-based observatory class to study the Sun and was fired using ISRO's reliable PSLV at 11.50 am.

If it reaches the L1 orbit, Aditya-L1 will join SOHO, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe, ESA’s Solar orbiter, and a handful of other spacecraft dedicated to studying the closest star to Earth.

Indian Space Research Organisation's Aditya-L1 mission is now orbiting Earth, studying the sun and attempting to solve pressing solar mysteries.

India's Aditya-L1 spacecraft successfully deployed a 6-meter magnetometer boom in space, a critical step for its mission to study the Sun's chromosphere, corona, and interplanetary magnetic field.

ISRO’s innovation is evident in Aditya-L1’s design. The cube-shaped craft boasts a honeycomb sandwich structure, and its integrated miniaturized GPS receiver ensures real-time data on position ...

India plans to launch Aditya-L1, its first-ever dedicated solar probe, early on Saturday morning (Sept. 2).

Called Aditya-L1, the spacecraft, weighing over 3,264 pounds, blasted off from the spaceport Satish Dhawan Space Centre in South India's Sriharikota using the 44.4-meter tall polar satellite ...
