NASA will launch a scientific campaign during the August 12 solar eclipse. A high-altitude aircraft will study the Sun's corona for extended periods. Dozens of balloons will track changes in Earth's atmospheric boundary layer. Researchers aim to unlock new secrets about the Sun and our planet. This rare event offers unique observation conditions for scientific discovery.

Jets from NASA and the Irish Air Corps C-295, as well as a host of private jets, are preparing to deploy jets and scientific balloons during August's total solar eclipse.

Equipos financiados por la agencia utilizarán un avión WB-57 y globos científicos para analizar la corona y los cambios temporales en la atmósfera terrestre
