As the Moon casts its shadow across North America on Monday, plunging millions into momentary darkness, Nasa will launch five pioneering science projects to better understand the Sun during the Total Solar Eclipse.
These experiments, designed to unravel the mysteries of the Sun and its influence on Earth, are aimed at enhancing our understanding of heliophysics and atmospheric science.
Peg Luce, acting director of the Heliophysics Division at NASA Headquarters, highlighted the seven-year gap since the last American total solar eclipse.
“We’re thrilled to announce the selection of five new projects that will study the 2024 eclipse,” Luce stated, underscoring the anticipation surrounding what these experiments might reveal about our closest star and its impact on our planet.
