<p>The Aditya-L1 is destined to travel 1.5 million kilometres over four months, far short of the sun, which is 150 million km from Earth. It is meant to stop its journey in a kind of parking lot in space, called a Lagrange Point, where objects tend to stay put because of balancing gravitational forces, thereby reducing fuel consumption for the spacecraft.</p>

<p>The project director of the Aditya-L1 mission, Nigar Shaji said the mission would be "an asset to the heliophysics of the country and even to the global scientific fraternity."</p>

<p>The mission will carry out seven science experiments and will collect data for the next five years. It has been designed to provide remote observations of the solar corona and record solar winds. The satellite and its payloads will revolve around the Sun and will observe the Sun continuously without any eclipses.&nbsp;</p>
