5 New Discoveries from NASA's Parker Solar Probe

Good afternoon my RP Brothers and Sisters... It is my belief that most people simply take our SUN for granted without knowing very much about it, but NASA has uncovered some extremely amazing facts that heretofore were totally unknown... I believe that most of you in RP land who have an interest in SPACE or our SOLAR SYSTEM will enjoy this marvelous information about our SUN obtained by NASA's Parker Solar Probe Mission. Read on...

"NASA's Parker Solar Probe mission has returned unprecedented data from near the Sun, culminating in new discoveries published on Dec. 4, 2019, in the journal Nature. Among the findings are new understandings of how the Sun's constant outflow of material, the solar wind, behaves. Seen near Earth -- where it can interact with our planet's natural magnetic field and cause space weather effects that interfere with technology -- the solar wind appears to be a relatively uniform flow of plasma. But Parker Solar Probe's observations reveal a complicated, active system not seen from Earth." NASA - Goddard
