The Parker Solar Probe, planned by NASA this year, will go to the Sun after several tests.

Work is continuing to ensure that the spacecraft, which is expected to approach 6.3 million km to the Sun, can withstand the high temperatures. The announcement made it clear that the Parker spacecraft will protect a 11.4 cm thick shield. This shield will protect the vehicle not only from the sun but also from the space cool.

We will investigate Parker, the solar bursts, and the unexplained temperature differences between the inner and outer segments of the Sun. It is also expected that the vehicle will have clues as to how high-energy particles are formed and damage spacecraft. Parker's duties are not limited to these. In addition, the vehicle will enter the atmosphere of Mercury.

If the car passes the tests successfully, it will be heading towards the Sun in the summer of 2018.
