In a series of images released today by ISRO, the solar storms of May 17 have been effectively captured
India's maiden space-based solar observatory, Aditya L1 satellite, has recently captured 'solar fury' and now the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has warned that the Sun is moving towards "its solar maximum, giving rise to enhanced activity".
ISRO chairman S Somanath told NDTV, "Aditya L1 captured when the Sun got angry this May. If it gets furious in the near future, as scientists suggest, India's 24x7X365 days' eye on the Sun is going to provide a forewarning. After all, we have to protect the 50-plus Indian satellites in space that have cost the country an estimated more than Rs 50,000 crore. Aditya L1 is a celestial protector for our space assets."
In a series of images released today by the Indian space agency, the solar storms of May 17 have been effectively captured and full disk images show enhanced solar activity and solar flares.
