India has launched a total of eleven sounding rockets to study today's annular solar eclipse over the country.
Five of the rockets were launched before the eclipse, to gather baseline data on the atmosphere. The other six were launched during the eclipse. The point of the study is to look at the effects, if any, on the atmosphere of the reduced solar energy during the eclipse.
