SciShow Space | What Do You Learn When You Touch the Sun? @scishowspace | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 1 hour ago
Though our Sun is something we can count on to rise and set each day, it also comes with some phenomena that can catch us by surprise: solar winds. To better predict when these winds will travel all the way to Earth, we sent the Parker Solar Probe to our big flaming ball in the sky with a big mission.

RIP Dr Eugene N Parker, NASA Visionary, June 10, 1927 — March 15, 2022
