India's Aditya-L1 solar probe positioned to fill critical gap when NASA-ESA’s SOHO retires

India’s Aditya-L1 solar probe can fill a critical knowledge gap when the life of NASA-ESA’s Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) concludes, because of its ability to carry out environmental monitoring and remote survey of the Sun simultaneously, say scientists involved in developing the payloads.
