Isro prepares PSLV-XL rocket for December launch of European Proba-3 mission

indiatoday.in — December 2, 2024 at 07:01 AM UTC

The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) is preparing to launch the PSLV-XL rocket carrying the European Space Agency's Proba-3 mission on December 4, 2024. The spacecraft has been successfully integrated and encapsulated for the launch from Sriharikota. Proba-3 will be the first mission to use precision formation flying with two satellites, which will create artificial solar eclipses to study the Sun's corona. This setup allows for continuous observations for up to six hours, improving solar research capabilities. The PSLV-XL, equipped with additional boosters, will carry the two satellites, the Occulter and the Coronagraph, weighing a total of 550 kg. This mission highlights Isro's role in international space collaboration and advances understanding of solar dynamics.
