After an anomaly onboard Proba-3's Coronagraph spacecraft led to loss of contact between the spacecraft and ground control last February, a tiger team worked relentlessly to get the spacecraft and its ASPIICS coronagraph back. After about 2 months of careful and gradual testing, a first formation flight was successfully performed last week. This was the moment of truth for the ASPIICS coronagraph.
