NASA Parker Solar Probe - Journey To The Sun

On Aug. 11th 2018, NASA launched the Parker Solar Probe, which will be the first-ever mission to "touch" the Sun.

The probe, about the size of a small car, will travel directly into the Sun's atmosphere, about 4 million miles from the surface.

The probe will slingshot around Venus, which will help it create a tighter orbit around the Sun, it’s first orbit around the sun will be at 15 million miles, it’s 21st orbit in 2024 will put it at 4 million miles from the sun, and travelling at around 430,000 Kph.

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe will study the Sun to help us better understand the corona, the solar wind and other solar activity that might impact life on Earth.

Thanks for watching.
