ISRO successfully deployed the magnetometer boom on Aditya-L1 satellite, enabling it to measure low-intensity interplanetary magnetic field at Lagrange point L-1 for India's first solar mission.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has successfully deployed the magnetometer boom on the Aditya-L1 satellite, allowing it to measure the low-intensity interplanetary magnetic field in space.
The 6-meter-long boom was deployed at the Lagrange point L-1 on January 11, after being in stowed condition since the Aditya-L1 launch in September 2022.
The boom carries two state-of-the-art, high-accuracy fluxgate magnetometer sensors, which measure the magnetic field at distances of 3 and 6 meters from the spacecraft body, helping to cancel out the spacecraft's own magnetic influence.
The Aditya-L1 mission is India's first solar mission, aimed at understanding the chromospheric and coronal dynamics of the Sun.
ISRO desplegó con éxito el brazo del magnetómetro en el satélite Aditya-L1, lo que le permitió medir el campo magnético interplanetario de baja intensidad en el punto L-1 de Lagrange para la primera misión solar de la India.
