Spacecraft Duo to Simulate Solar Eclipse, Unlocking Secrets of the Sun’s Atmosphere

On December 5, the sunlit up not just as a ball of fire but as a stage for a scientific marvel.

The Europeanspace Agency (ESA) launched a pair of spacecraft that will mimic a natural phenomenon, creating an artificial solar eclipse for the first time ever. This will allow scientists to study the sun’s mysterious outer atmosphere, the corona.

The mission, named Proba-3, aims to accomplish two primary goals. First, it will demonstrate the readiness of technology called precise formation flying. Priests allow to spacecraft to work in tandem, perfectly coordinated, over long distance

The mission promises to revolutionize our understanding of the corona, a mysterious region with temperatures far exceeding those on the surface. This presents fascinating questions for scientists. Why is the corona hotter than the sun’s surface following solar flares, beams of energy.
