List of companies and collaborators involved in the Aditya L-1 mission

Companies and Associates in Aditya L-1: After the successful Chandrayaan-3 mission, ISRO successfully launched its first solar mission named Aditya L1 on September 2. A magnificent chapter added to ISRO’s Space Expedition will provide key information on coronal heating, coronal mass ejection, pre-flare and flare activities and their characteristics, space weather dynamics, particle and field propagation, etc.

Who is Dr. Sankarasubramanian K. appointed as Chief Scientist of ISRO’s Aditya-L1 mission?

What is the budget of the Aditya L-1 mission?

Conceived in 2008, the Aditya mission was repeatedly postponed due to lack of funding. Initial plans for the mission in fiscal year 2017 were for a modest, 400-kilogram satellite in low Earth orbit to be used as an experimental project with a budget of 3 million rupees to study the solar corona. However, the cost of a solar mission, less launch costs, is Rs. HRK 378.53 million. The budget includes all phases of research, development and testing, as well as the cutting-edge equipment and expertise needed to explore the solar corona. This expenditure demonstrates India’s commitment to developing its space capabilities and making a positive impact on world science.

When and how long will Aditya L1 take to reach the Sun?

The Mumbai-based multinational company has contributed key components such as booster segments, nozzle flange and umbilical plates for Chandrayaan’s LVM3 M4 mission.

Who is Dr. Sankarasubramanian K. appointed as Chief Scientist of ISRO’s Aditya-L1 mission?

Aditya L1 is India’s first solar mission of its class to be launched into space. The spacecraft will be placed in a halo orbit 1.5 million kilometers from Earth, at the Lagrange point 1 (L1) of the Sun-Earth system. Seven scientific payloads are in the spacecraft for conducting in-depth research of the Sun. Each payload is designed locally in collaboration with various ISRO centers and scientific institutes.
