ISRO to analyse data of solar eclipse
The Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre here, an unit of ISRO, has made elaborate arrangements including launch of sounding rockets to gather data for a comprehensive analysis of the annular solar eclipse, which will occur on January 15. The atmospheric-ionospheric parameters to be conducted in India would be one of the most comprehensive scientific campaigns ever attempted during a solar eclipse anywhere in the world, a VSSC release said here on Wednesday. At 11.14 a.m. on January 15, the eclipse will pass close to Thumba with 91 per cent obscuration of the Sun and its edges would touch Sriharikota with 85 per cent obscuration. The eclipse would be a unique one since it will take place during noontime, when the incoming solar radiation would be at its maximum, the VSSC release said.
