India's Aditya-L1 and Europe's Proba-3 watched the same solar eruptions, and their results agree.

In September 2025, both spacecraft caught two coronal mass ejections (huge bursts of plasma from the Sun) at the same time. Scientists at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bengaluru used both views to measure them.

One raced out at about 645 km/s; the other moved at just 145 km/s. Two very different instruments gave matching estimates of mass and energy.

ISRO is set to launch NVS-03 to bring India’s own navigation system back to full strength.

NavIC needs at least four working satellites for positioning, and right now it has three. The new satellite is due to launch on a GSLV rocket from Sriharikota, with 30 October the likely date.
