The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) shared fresh photos taken by Aditya-L1 on Thursday, including selfies and pictures of the Moon and Earth in the same space.
As a part of ISRO’s solar mission, Aditya-L1 is scheduled to reach the Sun-Earth L1 point.
Aditya L1 will reach a point 1.5 million km away from Earth to a special spot known as Lagrange point 1 (L1) in 125 days.
On Tuesday, ISRO said that Aditya-L1 Solar Mission has successfully performed its second earth-bound maneuver from the Indian Space and Research Organisation Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC).
“The new orbit attained is 282 km x 40225 km,” the Indian space agency said.
Aditya has to complete five maneuvers and will begin its 110-day trajectory to its destination around the L1 Lagrange point.
The next maneuver is scheduled for September 10, it said.
