Description: NASA made history by doing something once thought impossible — flying near the Sun. The Parker Solar Probe, launched in 2018, became the first spacecraft to fly through the Sun’s outer atmosphere, called the corona. It came as close as 0.04 AU, which is about 4-6 million miles from the Sun’s surface. The mission was dangerous and groundbreaking. Temperatures in the corona reach over a million degrees Fahrenheit. But the probe was protected by a special heat shield, allowing it to survive the extreme heat and radiation. As it flew through the corona, it collected data about solar winds, magnetic fields, and the Sun’s behavior. Scientists were amazed. For the first time, we could “touch” the Sun and understand it up close. The Parker Solar Probe revealed secrets about how solar storms form and why the corona is hotter than the surface — questions that puzzled experts for decades. This mission marked a giant leap in space science. By flying so close to the Sun, NASA opened a new era of exploration. It showed that with the right technology and bold vision, we can reach the edge of the unknown — and even survive a journey into the heart of a star.
