India's Aditya-L1 spacecraft, en route to study the Sun at Lagrange Point 1, has shared stunning images of Earth and the Moon. Launched on September 2, Aditya-L1 is India's inaugural solar observatory mission. It has completed Earth-bound maneuvers and is heading nearly 1.5 million kilometers away from Earth to continuously observe the Sun without interruptions, offering real-time solar activity data. The primary payload, Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC), will send 1,440 images daily for analysis. This mission aims to deepen understanding of solar eruptive events and their impact on space weather.
