About the Book
"Life on Earth could not exist without the Sun. The Parker Solar Probe will help scientists learn about our solar system's only star. With full-color images and engaging text, the Sun feels closer than ever"--Book Synopsis
Life on Earth could not exist without the Sun. The Parker Solar Probe will help scientists learn about our solar system's only star.
Using Venus' gravity like a slingshot, over seven years the Parker Solar Probe will orbit closer to the Sun than ever before. Eventually it will encounter supersonic solar winds and fly through high-energy particles while withstanding intense heat. What will the Parker Solar Probe tell us about how the Sun's energy and heat affect Earth?Review Quotes
