Primary objectives
The primary objective of solar Parker
probe satellite is to detect valuable information regarding energy flow of corona
(i.e. actual phenomenon of generation)
To determine structure and position
of plasma and magnetic field at solar wind.
Find an actual mechanism that speed up moments
of particles This is three main objectives of
solar Parker probe.
Why this research is
important
First, because of solar wind generated
by sun, are very harmful to earth atmosphere and they are destructive in
nature. The solar wind carries ENERGETIC
PARTICLES caused disturbances in our communication systems.
And to protect our society from such
kind of destruction we need to first understand it very clearly.
That’s why we need to solve the
mystery of corona.

JOURNEY TOWARDS THE
FIRE STAR
THE SOLAR PARKER PROBE REACHED NEAR TO
4 MILLION MILES AWAY FROM SUN FACING ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF HEAT AND RADIATION,
WHICH WAS NEVER BEFORE FACED BY ANY OTHER SPACECRAFT.

PATH OF TRAJECTORY
FIRST SOLAR PARKER PROBE WILL USE SEVEN VENUS FLYBYS; GRADUALLY WILL SHRINK ITS ORBIT AROUND THE SUN. WHICH IS BECOME 3.38 MILLION MILES TO THE SUN, THIS IS REALLY A NEAR TO SUN.
THIS SPACECRAFT WILL GO CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE SUN TO WATCH SOLAR WIND
MOMENT AND SPEED. THEN probe will INCREASE ITS SPEED FROM SUBSONIC TO
SUPER-SONIC. AT THE POINT TRUE MISSION OF TOUCHING A FIRE STAR BEGAN AND
GENERATE MORE NEW QUESTION AND DISCOVERIES.
AT CLOSEST APPROACH OF 3.38 MILLION MILES, THE SPEED OF SOLAR PROBE IS
ABOUT ~4, 30,000 MILE PER HOUR
AND ORBIT PERIOD IS 88 DAYS.
