Parker Solar Probe

So yeah, that’s my name on the microchip which will head into the sun’s atmosphere. It’ll be great to see what comes out of ‘touching the sun’.

“The primary science goals for the mission are to trace how energy and heat move through the solar corona and to explore what accelerates the solar wind as well as solar energetic particles. The mission will revolutionize our understanding of the Sun, where changing conditions can spread out into the solar system, affecting Earth and other worlds.” – NASA
