Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Isro scientists after India’s first solar observatory Aditya L1 has reached its destination on Saturday.
He said that the success was a testament to the relentless dedication of the country’s scientists.
"The final manoeuvre completed at around 4 pm will bind the Aditya-L1 to a halo orbit around L1. If we don't do this, there is a possibility that it will continue its journey, maybe towards the Sun," an Isro official said.
The Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C57) launched the Aditya-L1 spacecraft from the second launch pad of Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC), Sriharikota, on September 2 last year.
