Aditya-L1, India’s first mission to study the Sun, is set to conduct a complex manoeuvre that will insert it into the halo orbit around Lagrange Point 1 (L1) — considered to be the most significant of the Lagrangian points for observation of the Sun.
The insertion into L1, a point of gravitation equilibrium between the Earth and the Sun, is a critical phase of the mission that requires precise navigation and control. According to scientists, the meticulous process involves ensuring that the spacecraft maintains its trajectory to successfully enter the halo orbit.
