File: The Sun by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly of NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory - 20100819.jpg
The detailed images recorded by SDO in 2011–2012 have helped scientists uncover new secrets about the Sun. The Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) is a NASA mission which has been observing the Sun since 2010. [4]

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe is expected to dive extremely close to the solar surface on Dec. 24. The spacecraft should get nearer to the sun than any other human-made object in history — within ...
NASA's Parker Solar Probe is about to make its closest approach to the sun. The spacecraft will fly within 3.8 million miles of the solar surface. The spacecraft is collecting essential data that ...
The European Space Agency released four stunning images last week that show the sun in all its fiery glory. The images, obtained in March 2023 by the ESA's Solar Orbiter, represent what the agency ...
The first satellites designed for long term observation of the Sun from interplanetary space were NASA's Pioneers 6, 7, 8 and 9, which were launched between 1959 and 1968. These probes orbited the Sun at a distance similar to that of Earth, and made the first detailed measurements of the solar wind and the solar magnetic field.
This is how close the Parker Solar Probe will get to the sun. The Parker Solar Probe is expected to pass within an "unprecedented" 3.86 million miles of the solar surface on Dec. 24, according to ...
