Proba-3: Creating artificial Solar Eclipses in space ☀️ #shorts
The double-satellite Proba-3 is the most ambitious member yet of ESA’s Proba family of experimental missions. Two spacecraft will fly together as one, maintaining precise formation down to a single millimetre. One will block out the fiery disc of the Sun for the other, to enable prolonged observations of the Sun’s surrounding atmosphere, or ‘corona’, the source of the solar wind and space weather. Usually, the corona can only be glimpsed for a few minutes during terrestrial total solar eclipses.
Proba-3 aims to reproduce such eclipses for up to six hours at a time, in a highly elliptical orbit taking it more than 60 000 km from Earth. The two spacecraft are being launched together by India’s PSLV-XL launcher from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre.

Pertenezco a la tripulación del según ustedes AKA SOLAR ….como sigais con tonterias ponemos otra vez la camara en el DISCO para que vea el mundo lo que ocultais….
Can't believe the official esa has only 7 comments tbh
Corona can do so much 😉.. sun wil reveal new secrets for sure

The best G2V star
“Fluffy bits”. 😂 That’s the funniest description of solar activity I’ve ever heard.
Nice ESA. Can it make a circular artificial eclipse, cause it's shaped like a square?
This is so impressive and interesting! I wonder how this compares to the pros and cons of a fixed coronagraph? Amazed by what the team can do and excited to see what we learn. Thank you to the ESA and the space community for keeping my head up and towards the stars!
The Sun is made of a metallic hydrogen lattice structure and electromagnetic in nature.
So Europe started using freedom units too huh
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
If we cannot observe corona because of sun rays. Then how the images of corona discharge that is first shown in the video is obtained.
Would it still get dark? Can I call and have them come over my town with it?
This is awesome
