ESA’s Proba-3 starts turning artificial eclipses into a new tool for solar science
The European Space Agency says Proba-3 has demonstrated precision formation flying and begun producing early science results by creating on-demand solar eclipses in space to study the corona and the origins of space 응
Key Takeaways
- ESA’s Proba-3 uses two spacecraft flying 150 meters apart to create artificial solar eclipses.
- The mission has already gathered 250 hours of high-resolution coronal video across 57 eclipses.
