NASA's record-setting spacecraft was just 3.8 million miles from the sun's surface—the closest any human-made object has ever come to a star
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe survived its closest approach to the sun
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe skimmed the sun on Christmas Eve and lived to tell the tale. The heat-hardened spacecraft made its closest solar flyby yet at 6:53 a.m. EST on December 24. It came within 6.1 million kilometers of the surface of the sun, beating its own 2023 record of 7.26 million kilometers.
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 flew closer to the sun than any human-made object ever — a stunning technological feat that scientists liken to the historic Apollo moon landing in 1969.
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe Preps for Record-Breaking Christmas Eve Flyby
The Parker Solar Probe will swoop just 6.1 million kilometers above the sun’s surface on Christmas Eve. Scientists are thrilled at what we might learn
Parker Solar Probe to break speed records near the sun
Launched into space in 2018, the Parker Solar Probe is gradually tightening its orbit around the Sun. The most significant moment of the mission will occur on December 24, 2024, when the probe will approach the closest distance to the Sun and accelerate to 120 miles per second.
NASA's Parker Solar Probe survives close brush with the sun's scorching surface
NASA's Parker Solar Probe has successfully made the closest approach to the sun, the space agency confirmed Friday. NASA received an all-clear message from Parker on Thursday night confirming it survived the journey.
‘Uncharted Territory’: NASA Kicks Off Christmas With Record-Breaking Pass by the Sun
The space agency’s Parker Solar probe was supposed to approach within 3.8 million miles of the sun’s surface, a record-breaking distance, at 6:53 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. During the approach, the probe will be out of contact with Earth “due to constraints on signal transmission” so close to the sun’s surface.
