NASA’s Parker Probe Sends Closest-Ever Images from Inside the Sun’s Corona
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has achieved a solar milestone by capturing the closest-ever images of the Sun, taken just 3.8 million miles from its surface in December 2024. These WISPR images reveal unprecedented details of the corona, solar wind, and CME collisions. Scientists say this breakthrough will improve our ability to forecast space weather...

NASA Confirms Successful Flyby of Parker Solar Probe, Completes Closest Sun Approach
NASA's Parker Solar Probe has set an unprecedented milestone, coming 3.8 million miles from the Sun at a speed of 430,000 mph. Launched in 2018, the spacecraft has utilised Venus flybys to perfect its orbit, enabling this historic feat. With advanced technology, it endures extreme temperatures, gathering critical data about solar wind and particle ...

What Time Is NASA's Parker Solar Probe Closest Sun Flyby on Christmas Eve?
On Dec. 24 at 6:53 a.m. EST, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe will achieve its closest flyby of the Sun at 3.8 million miles. The mission, part of a seven-year study, aims to uncover the mysteries of the Sun’s corona and solar wind. Travelling at 430,000 mph, the spacecraft is protected by a heat shield designed to withstand extreme temperatures. Upda...

NASA Shares Stunning Image of Solar Flares Recently Ejected by Sun
The Sun's surface is marked by electrically charged gases that keep generating powerful magnetic forces. Their area of influence is called magnetic fields. As these gases are dynamic, they continuously stretch and twist the magnetic fields. Sometimes, this tangling of magnetic fields causes a sudden explosion of energy called solar flares.
