In just 2️⃣ days, ISRO is going to launch PSLV-C57 carrying Aditya-L1, India's first space-based Solar observatory! 🚀☀️
Check out this infographic to know more about the launch! 👇 #ISRO#AdityaL1
We are hours away from the launch of Aditya-L1, India's first space-based solar observatory. 🇮🇳
It is also going to be ISRO's first mission to the L1 point!
That's right, unlike what you may have seen in the media, Aditya-L1 is NOT headed to the Sun. ☀️
Instead, it is going to a region in space called the Lagrange 1 or L1 point (that's why it is called Aditya-𝗟𝟭), which is only 1% of the distance to the Sun away from Earth!
Even then, it is roughly 15 lakh km away from the Earth, about 4 times the distance to the Moon! 🌖
The reason it is going to the L1 point is because at that distance, the gravity of the Earth and that of the Sun cancel each other out! This means the spacecraft won't have to orbit the Earth and can just sit in a "halo orbit" around the L1 point, allowing it to continuously observe the Sun!

These wires are lying from last 2-3 months but nobody is looking for this matter.

The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole!
