ADITYA: An Indigenous Mission
The success of Chadrayaan – 1 has boosted the confidence of ISRO scientists and now they are looking beyond moon. Now they are targetting SUN.
ISRO has conceptually developed a sun mission and named it ADITYA, the first space based Solar Coronagraph intended to study corona.
As per ISRO Chairman G. Madhavan Nair, Aditya has been approved and its operations would begin soon. Sun mission is very critical and one of its kind in the global space research.
Though the exact date and time is not yet confirmed, ISRO is planning to launch ADITYA during next high solar activity period.
