The European Space Agency (ESA) spearheads the Proba-3 mission, a pioneering venture in precision formation flying and solar observation. This mission consists of two small satellites, the Coronagraph Spacecraft and Occulter Spacecraft, working together to image the Sun's corona. By creating an artificial eclipse, Proba-3 enables extended observations of the solar corona in various light spectrums. India's role in launching the mission from Sriharikota highlights international cooperation in space exploration, demonstrating collaborative efforts to advance scientific knowledge and understanding of the universe.
