India's Aditya-L1 spacecraft has captured stunning images of Earth and the Moon from space as it loops around the planet ahead of leaving for its destination, Lagrange Point 1. It also shared a selfie

The camera onboard Aditya-L1 captured the image of its largest payload, Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC) and SUIT instruments on September 4, according to the Indian Space and Research Organisation (Isro). The camera also clicked Earth and its only natural satellite Moon on the second day of its four-month-long journey to L1.

“👀Onlooker! Aditya-L1, destined for the Sun-Earth L1 point, takes a selfie and images of the Earth and the Moon,” Isro said in a post on X, formerly Twitter, as it shared the selfie and images of Earth and Moon clicked by camera onboard Adtiya-L1.

The next Earth-bound manoeuvre is scheduled for September 10 around 2:30am IST.

Doesn't Earth look glorious from the Space?
