ISRO's Aditya-L1 completes first halo orbit around Sun-Earth L1 point in 178 days
India's first solar mission, Aditya-L1, completed its first halo orbit around the Sun-Earth L1 point, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) announced. Launched on September 2 last year, the Aditya-L1 spacecraft was inserted into its targeted halo orbit on January 6. It takes 178 days to complete a revolution around the L1 point. Station-keeping manoeuvres on February 22, June 7, and July 2 have maintained its orbit, with the latest manoeuvre ensuring it continues into the second halo orbit path.
