TL;DR Summary

The European Space Agency's Proba-3 mission is set to launch from India, aiming to create artificial solar eclipses using two satellites flying in precise formation. This €200m mission will allow scientists to study the sun's corona more extensively by producing 50 artificial eclipses annually, each lasting six hours. The mission could enhance understanding of solar phenomena and improve predictions of solar weather, while also testing new satellite formation flying techniques for future space observatories.
