Parker Solar Probe
Data offers insights into burning questions
Published Dec 5, 2019
Equipped with cutting-edge scientific instruments to measure the environment around the spacecraft, the Parker Solar Probe—designed, built, and managed for NASA by the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory—has completed three of its 24 planned passes through never-before-explored parts of the sun's atmosphere. Four new papers in the journal Nature describe what scientists have learned from this groundbreaking study of our star—and what they look forward to learning next.
