ISRO is all set to launch Aditya-L1 to study suns activities in real-time

India's maiden solar mission Aditya-L1 countdown has begun. Aditya-L1 will be placed in a halo orbit around Lagrangian Point 1 (or L1) which is 1.5 million km away from the Earth in the direction of the sun. It is expected to cover the distance in four months' time. This strategic location will enable Aditya-L1 to continuously observe the sun without being hindered by eclipses or occulation, allowing scientists to study solar activities and their impact on space weather in real-time.
