ISRO's Aditya-L1 solar mission has provided new insights into the impact of a powerful solar storm that struck Earth in October 2024. A study, published in the Astrophysical Journal in December 2025, revealed that the storm's turbulent region significantly compressed Earth's magnetic field, bringing it closer to the planet and exposing geostationary satellites to harsh conditions. The research, utilizing data from Aditya-L1 and international missions, highlights the importance of monitoring space weather to protect critical space assets.
