2024年12月27日 · NASA’s Parker Solar Probe survived its record-breaking closest approach to the solar surface on Dec. 24, 2024. Breaking its previous record by flying just 3.8 million miles above the surface of the Sun, the spacecraft hurtled through the solar atmosphere at a blazing 430,000 miles per hour — faster than any human-made object has ever moved.

2024年11月20日 · On a mission to “touch the Sun,” NASA's Parker Solar Probe became the first spacecraft to fly through the corona – the Sun’s upper atmosphere – in 2021. With every orbit bringing it closer, the probe faces brutal heat and radiation to provide humanity with unprecedented observations, visiting the only star we can study up close.

2024年12月27日 · Breaking its previous record by flying just 3.8 million miles above the surface of the Sun, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe hurtled through the solar atmosphere at a blazing 430,000 miles per hour — faster than any human-made object has ever moved.

2017年8月21日 · Parker Solar Probe: Science Objectives - Trace flow of energy that heats and accelerates the corona and solar wind - Determine structure and dynamics of plasma and magnetic fields at solar wind sources - Explore mechanisms that accelerate and transport energetic particles

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe mission will revolutionize our understanding of the Sun. The mission will “touch the Sun,” flying directly through the solar corona, facing brutal heat and radiation conditions and providing unprecedented, close-up observations of the star we live with.

2023年3月7日 · NASA’s Parker Solar Probe (PSP) will be the first-ever mission to “touch” the sun. The spacecraft, about the size of a small car, will travel directly into the sun’s atmosphere about 4 million miles from our star’s surface.

This paper describes the design, fabrication, test, and flight performance of the Parker Solar Probe's solar array. PSP travels closer to the sun than any other

The Parker Solar Probe (PSP; previously Solar Probe, ... plans for the Solar Probe mission were incorporated into a lower-cost Solar Probe Plus. [27] The redesigned mission uses multiple Venus gravity assists for a more direct flight path, which can be powered by solar panels. It has a higher perihelion, reducing the demands on the thermal ...

The Parker Solar Probe (formerly Solar Probe+) will be a historic mission, flying into the Sun's atmosphere (or corona), for the first time. Coming closer to the Sun than any previous spacecraft, the Parker Solar Probe will employ a combination of in situ measurements and imaging to achieve the mission's primary scientific goal: to understand ...

2024年11月25日 · Parker Solar Probe is making its final planned orbits around the Sun. On Wednesday, November 6, 2024, NASA's Parker Solar Probe completed it's final Venus gravity assist maneuver, passing within 233 miles (376 kilometers) of Venus' surface.
