Proba-3 Mission Prepares for Precision Formation Flying with Laser Metrology Tests
In a significant step toward realizing the European Space Agency's (ESA) ambitious Proba-3 mission, a crucial laser-based test campaign is currently underway at Redwire Space's facilities in Kruibeke, Belgium. This mission, poised to revolutionize our approach to observing the sun, involves two satellites, namely the 'Occulter' and the 'Coronagraph,' which will maintain a precise formation
