Summary:
- Researchers propose using artificial solar eclipses in space to study the Sun's outer atmosphere, called the corona, in more detail.
- The artificial eclipses would be created by launching a small satellite or spacecraft between the Earth and the Sun, temporarily blocking the Sun's light and allowing scientists to observe the corona.
- This technique could provide new insights into the Sun's behavior and help improve our understanding of solar activity, which can impact Earth's climate and technology.
