The Occulter satellite has a large circular disc to block the Sun’s dazzling light, creating an artificial eclipse that will be seen by its partner.
The Coronagraph satellite carries a special telescope to study the Sun’s corona in detail.
Together, these innovative satellites will create long-lasting eclipses in space, allowing scientists to observe the corona for up to six hours at a time!
