Aditya-L1 is a coronagraphy spacecraft planned to study the solar atmosphere, currently operated by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) and being designed and developed by various other indian research institutes.It will be inserted into a halo orbit around the L1 point between the Earth and the Sun where it will interact with the solar atmosphere, solar magnetic storms and the environment around Earth and will study the effect.^[1]

The main scientific objectives are coronal heating, solar wind acceldration, coronal magnetometry, generation and monitoring of near-UV solar radiation and continuous observation of the photosphere, chromosphere and corona, and the Sun's magnetic field.
