NASA's solar probe flies closer to the sun than any human-made object ever
NASA's Parker Solar Probe completes historic Christmas Eve flyby of the sun — but it could take days to know if it survived
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe made its closest approach to the sun early Tuesday, getting within just 4% of the Earth-sun distance — a feat compared to the '69 moon landing.
New analysis techniques and decades-old research helped NASA scientists identify an unusual black hole in a distant galaxy.
Early on Christmas Eve in 2024, a NASA craft swooped at blazing speed through the sun's atmosphere.
The Parker probe was launched in 2018 as part of NASA’s Living With a Star program with the aim of “touching” the sun. It has circled the sun more than 20 times since to explore the flaming hot, outermost layer, the corona, which can uncover how the sun-earth system affects life and society.

The Parker Solar Probe is expected to pass within an "unprecedented" 3.86 million miles of the solar surface on Dec. 24, according to NASA. "It's about to be on its closest approach to the sun," Rayl said.
During this approach, the spacecraft will dive through plumes of plasma still attached to the Sun. According to NASA, this is close enough to pass inside a solar eruption, similar to a surfer duck-diving under an ocean wave. Scientists will be unable to ...

California, United States Christmas will be full of brightness for NASA's Parker Solar Probe as it will fly closest to the fiery surface of the sun ever in human history on Christmas Eve. This is the closest any man-made machine will travel to the burning star.
The Parker Solar Probe, traveling at 430,000 mph, reaches 3.8 million miles from the Sun. Scientists now wait for a signal and proof of life.
To get so close, the Parker Solar Probe had to withstand the sun's extreme heat and radiation like no spacecraft before it.
