The Probe began its journey to the Sun on August 12, 2018 and is expected to get within 3.8 million miles of our star where it will experience temperatures in excess of 2,500 Fahrenheit (1,377 Celsius). More information about the Probe can be found on <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/content/goddard/parker-solar-probe">NASA's website</a>.</p> <p>Photo credit: NASA</p> <p>Last Updated: Aug. 21, 2018</p> <p>Editor: Bob Granath</p></div> <div> <div>Image</div> <div> <img src="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/sites/default/files/2018-08/psp-launch-2a.jpg" width="1041" height="585" alt="Delta IV Heavy Lifts off for Parker Solar Probe Mission" typeof="foaf:Image" /></div> </div> <div> <div>Article link</div> <div><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQaCY7wlQEc">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQaCY7wlQEc</a></div> </div> <div> <div>Categories</div> <div> <div><a href="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/taxonomy/term/6" hreflang="en">NASA</a></div> <div><a href="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/taxonomy/term/9" hreflang="en">Sun</a></div> <div><a href="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/taxonomy/term/36" hreflang="en">Solar Weather</a></div> <div><a href="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/taxonomy/term/37" hreflang="en">Parker Probe</a></div> <div><a href="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/taxonomy/term/38" hreflang="en">Sun Probe</a></div> <div><a href="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/taxonomy/term/39" hreflang="en">Kennedy Space Center</a></div> </div> </div> Fri, 31 Aug 2018 17:28:39 +0000 lmarlow2 64 at https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/node/62 <span>Send Your Name to the Sun Aboard NASA's Parker Solar Probe</span> <span><span lang="" about="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/user/15" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="" xml:lang="">lmarlow2</span></span> <span>Wed, 03/14/2018 - 17:03</span> <div><p>In the summer of 2018 NASA will launch a probe to travel through the atmosphere of our sun where its instruments will gather data in a region humanity has never been able to reach before. Not only will this exploration allow us to gather exciting new data on solar weather, but NASA is offering to let you send your name along for the ride!</p></div> <div> <div>Image</div> <div> <img src="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/sites/default/files/2018-03/psp-swingbysuncloseupsun_0.jpg" width="1100" height="618" alt="An artists interpretation of the Parker solar probe approaching the surface of the sun." typeof="foaf:Image" /></div> </div> <div> <div>Article link</div> <div><a href="http://parkersolarprobe.jhuapl.edu/News-Center/Show-Article.php?articleID=70">http://parkersolarprobe.jhuapl.edu/News-Center/Show-Article.php?articleID=70</a></div> </div> <div> <div>Categories</div> <div> <div><a href="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/taxonomy/term/6" hreflang="en">NASA</a></div> <div><a href="https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu/taxonomy/term/36" hreflang="en">Solar Weather</a></div> </div> </div> Wed, 14 Mar 2018 22:03:18 +0000 lmarlow2 62 at https://gmd.mste.illinois.edu
