Aditya-L1, launched on Sep 2, 2023, is the first space observatory of ISRO dedicated to solar observations. Located at the first Lagrange point, which is about 15 lakh kilometres away from the Earth towards the Sun, it is providing continuous observations of the Sun without any interruption. Aditya provides remote sensing observations in the wavelength from Hard X-ray to infrared from the same platform and in situ measurements of the particles in the solar wind, flares and coronal mass ejections. This talk will present some of the first light observations that we received and highlight the capabilities of Aditya as an observatory.
LaunchPad

LauchPad is an exciting forum to share and exchange knowledge with people from varied fields. It is a brain child of one of our alumni Ms. Manali Nayak, who is now pursuing graduate studies at University of Ohio, Cincinnati, USA.

Manali came up with idea of starting a monthly talk by people who are doing phenomenal work in their respective fields. The talk is open to people above 13 years and is FREE!
