The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is preparing to launch the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) on December 4, 2024, from Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh. This launch will carry the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Proba-3 mission, a collaborative effort with ISRO’s commercial arm, NewSpace India Limited (NSIL).

Proba-3 mission, originally slated for today, has been rescheduled to tomorrow at 16:12 IST, according to a statement from the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on its X account. The delay was prompted by an anomaly detected in the spacecraft.

Proba-3 is a joint mission to study the Sun's corona, the outermost layer of its atmosphere, which is vital for understanding solar activity and space weather
