Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised the scientists and engineers of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and promised to keep working tirelessly to understand the universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Soon after the launch, taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, he wrote, that after the success of Chandrayaan 3, India continues its space journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The PM then congratulated the scientists and engineers at ISRO for the successful launch of Aditya \u2013 L1 and he further wrote, our tireless scientific efforts will continue to develop a better understanding of the Universe for the welfare of entire humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">After the success of Chandrayaan-3, India continues its space journey. <br><br>Congratulations to our scientists and engineers at <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/isro?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@isro<\/a> for the successful launch of India\u2019s first Solar Mission, Aditya -L1. <br><br>Our tireless scientific efforts will continue in order to develop better\u2026<\/p>&mdash; Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/narendramodi\/status\/1697873881221231055?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 2, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A live webcast of the launch of the rocket Aditya-L1 was set up for hundreds of viewers, in which their enthusiasm and cheering wildly in the face of the audible roar of the rocket was seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the course of a four-month journey, the mission will use scientific sensors to investigate the Sun&#8217;s outer layers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking to X, ISRO also tweeted that the rocket was successfully launched. In their tweet, they also said, the satellite had been perfectly positioned in its appropriate orbit by the vehicle. The first solar observatory in India has started its trek towards the Sun-Earth L1 point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The spacecraft is anticipated to be placed in a Halo orbit around the Lagrangian point L1, which is thought to be closest to the Sun, after travelling around 1.5 million kilometres from Earth over 125 days. The results of the missions will have an impact on human space flight, according to retired Canadian astronaut and former commander of the International Space Station Chris Hadfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said, that when we put something like Aditya-L1 up there in between us and the Sun to sense those things, to better understand how the sun works and the threats that it has to the earth, it\u2019s good for everybody for protecting us as people. \u00a0He further said, of course, our electrical grid, our internet grid, and all of the thousands of satellites that we count on that are up in orbit. The globe relies on a really complicated interconnected global electric and data system, Hadfield said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>India is not the first to launch this mission, countries including The US, Japan, and China have also launched their solar mission to study the Sun in the past.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A live webcast of the launch of the rocket Aditya-L1 was set up for hundreds of viewers, in which their enthusiasm and cheering wildly in the face of the audible roar of the rocket was seen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":486858,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[1497,125714],"tags":[160394,160393,1973,1442,165,11637],"yst_prominent_words":[49656,3704,3816,6658,27069,37857,10083,10867,14484,8517,23036,66739,34427,8181,12903,44486,31496],"ppma_author":[140543],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/d2r2ijn7njrktv.cloudfront.net\/apnlive\/uploads\/2023\/09\/02141435\/ezgif-1-06998559d2-1.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"authors":[{"term_id":140543,"user_id":4,"is_guest":0,"slug":"apnnewsdesk","display_name":"APN Live","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/478eacb893eda88aa6ed8d99b005bf58?s=96&r=g"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/486856"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=486856"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/486856\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/486858"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=486856"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=486856"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=486856"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=486856"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=486856"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<!-- html is corrupted -->
