Build Your Solar Mission 🚀

Follow in Aditya-L1's footsteps. Press Launch and guide a spacecraft from Earth, out past the Moon's distance, all the way to a halo orbit around the Sun–Earth L1 point — 1.5 million kilometres away.

Ready on the launch pad at Sriharikota.

The five stages of the real mission

1️⃣

Launch

PSLV-C57 lifts Aditya-L1 into an Earth parking orbit.

2️⃣

Orbit raising

Repeated burns stretch the orbit ever wider around Earth.

3️⃣

Escape & cruise

A Trans-Lagrangian injection sends it on a 126-day cruise.

4️⃣

Halo insertion

A precise burn captures it into a halo orbit around L1.

A simplified, illustrative simulation for fun and learning — not to scale. See the real story on the Timeline.
