Journey to The Sun - NASA - Parker Solar Probe

The probe, about the size of a small car, will travel directly
into the Sun's atmosphere, about 4 million miles from the
surface.
On Aug. 11th 2018, NASA launched the Parker Solar Probe,
which will be the first-ever mission to "touch" the Sun
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.
