#HackerNews #Proba3 #ArtificialEclipse #SolarScience #SpaceTechnology #ESA
Today, the European Space Agency’s Proba-3 mission unveils its first images of the Sun’s outer atmosphere – the solar corona. The mission’s two satellites, able to fly as a single spacecraft thanks to a suite of onboard positioning technologies, have succeeded in creating their first ‘artificial total solar eclipse’ in orbit. The resulting coronal images demonstrate the potential of formation flying technologies, while delivering invaluable scientific data that will improve our understanding of the Sun and its enigmatic atmosphere.
A 5.6-ton marvel just gave us the most detailed view of the Sun ever. Discover how this instrument is revolutionizing solar science. #SolarScience #SpaceWeather #InouyeTelescope
