India's Next Space Mission: Exploring the Sun, Venus, and Beyond

India's next space mission after the successful Chandrayaan-3 moon landing is the Aditya-L1, the country's first space observatory for solar research. Scheduled for launch in the first week of September, the spacecraft aims to study solar winds and their impact on Earth's climate patterns. It will travel 1.5 million km using India's PSLV launch vehicle and will be stationed at Lagrange Points in space to conserve fuel. The mission's cost has not been officially disclosed, but the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is known for its cost competitiveness in space engineering.
