NASA's Parker Solar Probe Makes 2nd Daring Flyby of the Sun NASA's Daring Solar Probe Is Skimming Past the Sun Today! Parker Solar Probe launched in August 2018 on a mission to study the sun's outer atmosphere, called the corona. Parker Solar Probe is outfitted with four different in...
The Sept. 10, 2017 flare triggered a large CME from above the western edge of the sun, not directed directly at Earth. This CME, powered by the large flare, clocked in with thefastest CME accelerationever observed, and one of the fastest initial CME speeds (4,300 km/s). NASA's Solar...
NASA's Curiosity rover has captured "sun rays" on Mars for the first time, the agency says. The footage was taken on Feb. 6, NASA said, and showed the phenomenon as the sun set on the planet. This is the first time, NASA said, that the sun rays, also known as crepuscular rays...
It is also in the core where the majority of the Sun’s energy is produced through nuclear fusion, which converts hydrogen into helium. Nearly 99% of the thermal energy created by the Sun occurs within this region – which accounts for 24% of the Sun’s interior. By 30% of the radius...

DAVINCI+ and VERITAS will attempt to answer how and why the second planet from the sun became the hellscape it is today. While other spacecraft, like Lucy, have used solar energy to operate instruments, Psyche will be among the first of NASA’s deep-space missions to use solar energy f...
A NASA mission to touch the sun has revealed answers about the closest star's solar winds, which cause the aurora borealis and can affect Earth's communications systems. The Parker Solar Probe has captured information about the solar wind that flows from the sun's coronal holes toward's our...
getting an understanding of where the Earth is in relation to the Sun and moon and planets is just, well, sort of nice to know. If you've ever sat outside at night and got into an discussion about whether that bright star is actually a planet, and if it is - "Which planet is it...
Today many of us tend to forget how profoundly music affects us, and how it can generate not only harmony but also disharmony. The Sun gives us a feeling of being a vessel for something larger, something higher, and if we can put ourselves in harmony with it, we can find a meaning ...
According to some scientist in NASA, they were able to bring up new assessments on the sun, which they have been researching on for the past 40 years. They also believe this discovery to bring a huge impact on science in the coming years. ...
