The Sun’s outer atmosphere—the corona—only reveals itself during total solar eclipses, which happen about every 18 months on Earth, and are only visible along a narrow path. These events offer ...
The first images of an artificial solar eclipse from ESA's Proba-3 mission have been unveiled. Total solar eclipses are rare, but exactly how rare is now up for debate after the European Space Agency ...

Proba-3's first artificial solar eclipseThe coronal images resulting from the first rounds of ASPIICS's observations offer a glimpse of the valuable data we can expect from this eclipse-making mission. Dietmar Pilz, ESA Director of ...
The Occulter blocked out the Sun’s bright disk with a 1.4-meter shield, casting an 8-centimeter-wide shadow onto the Coronagraph’s optical instrument, ASPIICS, which then captured the faint ...
The European Space Agency revealed that a mission to create an artificial eclipse was a success. The photos will allow scientists to study the sun's corona.
This allows ASPIICS to image the corona as if during a natural total solar eclipse. “Our ‘artificial eclipse’ images are comparable with those taken during a natural eclipse.
Two satellites have delicately pulled off an artificial solar eclipse, giving scientists a new look at the Sun's outer atmosphere.
Solar Eclipses On Command? That's Now A Reality The European Proba-3 spacecraft pair has created its first artificial solar eclipse.
The first images of an artificial solar eclipse from ESA's Proba-3 mission have been unveiled.
With its 5-centimeter aperture, ASPIICS is able to see much closer to the Sun’s surface and with greater clarity than ever before. Proba-3 Occulter eclipsing Sun for Coronagraph spacecraft.
