World's second mission: ISRO to do big on January 1, launch XPoSat for space after moon-sun


XPoSAT Mission Launching: Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has successfully launched its first solar mission Aditya L1. Earlier on August 23, ISRO created history by soft landing Chandrayaan-3 at the South Pole. After Moon and Sun, now ISRO has prepared a new mission. What is this mission launched on the first day of the new year and what is its purpose? Let's know about this in detail.

ISRO is all set to usher in the new year with the launch of its first X-ray Polarimeter Satellite (XPoSat) to probe the intense polarization of X-ray sources in space. According to the information, XPoSat will be launched on January 1, 2014. This is India's first polarimetry mission. ISRO has announced that the XPoSat mission will be launched using the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) at 9:10 am.

A mission designed to advance understanding in astronomy

In fact ISRO has designed a mission to advance scientific understanding in astronomy. X-ray polarimeter satellite XPoSat is India's first polarimetry mission. The mission is the second to Earth after NASA's Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) launched in 2021.

The spacecraft will carry two payloads

The spacecraft will carry two payloads into low Earth orbit. The first payload POLIX (Polarimeter Instrument in X-rays) will measure the polarization parameters, i.e. degree and angle of polarization, in the middle X-ray energy range of eight-30 keV photons. The second payload, XSPECT (X-ray Spectroscopy and Timing), will provide spectroscopic information in the energy range of 0.8-1.5 keV. It will monitor various sources. These include X-ray pulsars, black holes, binaries, LMXBs, AGNs and magnetars, low magnetic fields in neutron stars.

The mission will be for five years

POLIX is an X-ray polarimeter for astronomical observations in the energy band of 8-30 Kev. The instrument consists of a collimator, a scatterer and four X-ray proportional counter detectors that surround the scatterer. According to ISRO, this mission will last for five years.
