Parker Solar Probe

The spacecraft will zoom close to 5 million miles from the sun's surface during its 11th flyby.

The visible-light imagery will tell scientists more about the geology and minerals of Venus.

A new video of solar streamers evokes the streaking stars seen during spacecraft hyperdrives in "Star Wars."

In the superheated corona, the spacecraft was "flying into the eye of a storm," NASA says

The Parker Solar Probe set a new mark for distance and speed as it creeps closer to the sun.

The fastest spacecraft ever flown, NASA's Parker Solar Probe, regularly experiences high-speed collisions with dust particles that create explosions of plasma, a new study finds.

NASA's sun-grazing spacecraft is making its ninth daring dive past our neighborhood star in a continuing quest to puzzle out secrets of how the sun works.

Halfway through a series of opportunistic Venus observations, scientists say that a NASA sun spacecraft's success studying our strange neighbor will pave the way for future measurements.

As the sun's activity waxes and wanes, so does the ionosphere of Venus, a key layer in the upper atmosphere, according to new observations that cinch a decades-old suspicion.

NASA's Parker Solar Probe nailed its fourth swing past Venus on Feb. 20, and mission scientists celebrated by releasing a stunning image captured during a similar maneuver in July.
