India's Aditya-L1 satellite has marked a significant milestone as the Aditya Solar wind Particle Experiment (ASPEX) payload initiated its operations, shedding light on the mysteries of solar wind, Isro said on Saturday. "The SWIS instrument, activated on November 2, has demonstrated optimal performance in measuring solar wind ions, notably protons and alpha particles. With two sensor units providing a remarkable 360° field of view each, SWIS operates in perpendicular planes, offering detailed insights into solar wind behaviour," Isro said.
