“Signal received” After a smooth launch that was postponed by one day, operators and scientists waited to receive a first sign of life from the Proba-3 satellites.
Proba-3 is the latest ESA mission to be launched on December 4, 2024. The exploitation of ASPIICS, the instrument imaging the solar corona, is in the hands of the Royal Observatory of Belgium (ROB), where the associated scientific research will also be coordinated.
Last week was marked by a surprise proton event, with its source on the Sun's farside.
An interesting filament eruption took place in the Sun's southern hemisphere on 11 November.
A summary of the impacts on the power grids during the 10-11 May 2024 geomagnetic storm, as presented during last week's ESWW.
Good news from the Proba-3 front!
After a small delay due to problems with transport, the two satellites finally made it to India. They landed safely on November 5 to be transported to the launch site in Chennai. There, the final preparations for launch are ongoing. Currently the launch of Proba-3 is planned for December 4.
Another X-class flare, another source region. NOAA 3883 produced a X2.3 flare on 6 November.
ESWW 2024, a prominence eruption, first images of CCOR, and PROBA2's 15th anniversary.
Another X-class flare, and once again from a different region. NOAA 3878 was the source of an X2.0 flare on 31 October.
The solar storms of 24 and 26 October are compared from the initial X-class flare to the geomagnetic disturbance that resulted from the associated coronal mass ejection.
Another X-class flare, but from a different region. The associated coronal mass ejection may deliver a glancing blow on 28 October.
