NASA says that at present solar activity has increased a lot. Solar storms are hitting the Earth from all sides with high frequency. It is not only the Earth that is struggling with such effects.
India's Aditya L-1 sent by ISRO to study the Sun may get into trouble. NASA has shared harrowing footage of last year's Parker Solar Probe hitting a solar storm as it flew through an intense CME (coronal mass injection) cloud. The US Space Agency launched the Parker Solar Probe in 2018 to study the Sun's outer corona. America's Parker Solar Probe was somehow successful in avoiding this solar storm. Can ISRO's Aditya-L1 mission also do the same or will it be in danger?
NASA says that at present solar activity has increased a lot. Solar storms are hitting the Earth from all sides with high frequency. It is not only the Earth that is struggling with such effects. but it is affecting other planets too. Parker Solar Probe was launched by NASA mainly for two reasons. First – to understand whether CMEs can interact with planetary dust in orbit around our star and take it out and second - to better predict space weather.
This was the first time that a NASA spacecraft faced such an ordeal and managed to come out of the incident safely. During this entire process, it also collected some important data along the way. Such solar storms have affected satellites and spacecraft before. In such a situation, the possibility that it may have a negative impact on India's solar mission Aditya L-1 in the future cannot be ruled out.
Will Aditya L-1 be affected?
There are some fears that CME may also collide with Aditya L1. Two things can help ISRO spacecraft to avoid such an incident. First- the Parker Solar Probe has been designed to go very close to the Sun at a distance of 6.9 million kilometers from its surface. At the same time, Aditya-L1 has been kept far away. It is only 15 lakh kilometers away from the Earth. Second- Indian spacecraft have been strengthened with special metals and materials to protect them from excessive radiation, CME clouds, and any other space-based hazards.
