NASA's Sun campaign.

in #news7 years ago

The American Space Agency NASA's Sun Expedition is in its final stages of preparation. This campaign, called Parker Solar probe, will be launched from Kennedy Space Center in Florida on July 31 this year. This will be the first time in human history when a vehicle will enter the sun's atmosphere.

In its seven-year campaign, the Parker Solar probe will explore the outer environment of the sun and try to find answers to questions that have been enticing scientists for decades. NASA has asked people to send their name with this vehicle, so that their name can touch the sun.

Mission goal

Examining the texture of the magnetic field and its dynamics on the sources of solar storm.
Understand the flow of energy that heats the surface of the sun (corona) and gives speed to solar storms.

Find out how the energy particles emitted from the Sun's atmosphere get accelerated.

To understand the dust plasma present near the sun and to understand its impact on solar storm and solar energy particles.

Security

A shield made of carbon fiber and graphite (solid carbon) is followed in front of the vehicle. This shield named Thermal Protection System will protect the vehicle from the sun's energy.
This shield is 11.4 cm thick and it can catch the temperature of 1370 degrees Celsius outside the vehicle.

The operating systems of all the scientific instruments and vehicles will remain hidden behind this shield so that the sunlight does not fall on them directly.

There will be special tubes named Thermal Radiator, which will remove the incoming heat from the vehicle and throw it into the space so that it does not reach the heat devices.
