European Space Agency launched Solar orbiter in February 2020, starting its primary mission in November 2021, will provide the closest ever images of the Sun, the first ever close-up images of the Sun’s polar regions, and measure the composition of the solar wind and linking it to its area of origin on the Sun’s surface.

Real space mission

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe will be the first-ever mission to “touch” the Sun. The spacecraft, about the size of a small car, will travel directly into the Sun’s atmosphere about 4 million miles from the surface.
