NASA and South Korea's Solar Coronagraph Begins ISS Mission

NASA's Coronal Diagnostic Experiment (CODEX), a solar coronagraph, has been delivered to the International Space Station to study the solar wind's temperature and speed. By blocking the sun's harsh light, CODEX will provide detailed observations of the sun's corona, enhancing our understanding of space weather and improving predictions. This comes at a crucial time as the sun is in its solar maximum phase, offering unique insights into different types of solar wind.
