NASA probe expected to make history with closest approach to the sun

This image made available by NASA shows an artist's rendering of the Parker Solar Probe approaching the Sun. On Tuesday, Dec. 14, 2021, NASA announced that the spacecraft has plunged through the unexplored solar atmosphere known as the corona in April, and will keep drawing ever closer to the sun and diving deeper into the corona.

A NASA spacecraft may have made history on Tuesday, flying closer to the sun than any object sent before.
