            "title": "Parker Solar Probe: The Origins of Switchbacks",
            "description": "Most of the magnetic field measured at Parker during this time is directed sunward (blue field lines and vectors).  A switchback occurs when the field changes direction almost 180 degrees for a short period of time.  FIELDS instrument magnetic vector data are projected from the spacecraft position as arrows.  The arrows are colored deep blue for sunward vectors, deep red for anti-sunward, and in between for directions off from this line.  The heliospheric magnetic field lines are represented as gold. || ParkerSP.ChaseCloseupAft.Switchbacks20181106A.FIELDS.clockSlate_EarthTarget.HD1080.00990_print.jpg (1024x576) [114.9 KB] || ParkerSP.ChaseCloseupAft.Switchbacks20181106A.FIELDS.clockSlate_EarthTarget.HD1080.00990_searchweb.png (320x180) [71.7 KB] || ParkerSP.ChaseCloseupAft.Switchbacks20181106A.FIELDS.clockSlate_EarthTarget.HD1080.00990_thm.png (80x40) [4.5 KB] || Switchbacks20181106A (1920x1080) [0 Item(s)] || ParkerSP.ChaseCloseupAft.Switchbacks20181106A.FIELDS.HD1080_p30.mp4 (1920x1080) [25.7 MB] || ParkerSP.ChaseCloseupAft.Switchbacks20181106A.FIELDS.HD1080_p30.webm (1920x1080) [4.4 MB] || Switchbacks20181106A (3840x2160) [0 Item(s)] || ParkerSP.ChaseCloseupAft.Switchbacks20181106A.FIELDS.UHD3840_2160p30.mp4 (3840x2160) [100.2 MB] || ParkerSP.ChaseCloseupAft.Switchbacks20181106A.FIELDS.HD1080_p30.mp4.hwshow [229 bytes] || ",

Launched in 2018 to study the Sun’s biggest mysteries, the spacecraft has now grazed the edge of the solar atmosphere and gathered new close-up observations of our star. This is allowing us to see the Sun as never before—including the findings in two new papers, which were presented at AGU, that are helping scientists answer fundamental questions about the Sun.PANELISTSDr. Nicola Fox• Heliophysics Division Director of the Science Mission Directorate at NASA HeadquartersDr. Nour Raouafi• Project Scientist for NASA’s Parker Solar Probe• The Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory Dr. Justin Kasper• Principal Investigator for Solar Wind Electrons Alphas and Protons (SWEAP) Investigation on Parker Solar Probe  • BWX Technologies, Inc., University of MichiganProf. Stuart D.

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has now flown through the Sun’s upper atmosphere – the corona – and sampled particles and magnetic fields there.  The new milestone marks one major step for Parker Solar Probe and one giant leap for solar science. Just as landing on the Moon allowed scientists to understand how it was formed, touching the very stuff the Sun is made of will help scientists uncover critical information about our closest star and its influence on the solar system.

            "title": "Animation: Origins of Switchbacks",
            "description": "On recent solar encounters, Parker Solar Probe collected data pinpointing the origin of zig-zag-shaped structures in the solar wind, called switchbacks. The data showed one spot switchbacks originate is at the visible surface of the Sun – the photosphere. By the time it reaches Earth, 93 million miles away, the solar wind is an unrelenting headwind of particles and magnetic fields. But as it escapes the Sun, the solar wind is structured and patchy. In the mid-1990s, the NASA-European Space Agency mission Ulysses flew over the Sun’s poles and discovered a handful of bizarre S-shaped kinks in the solar wind’s magnetic field lines, which detoured charged particles on a zig-zag path as they escaped the Sun. For decades, scientists thought these occasional switchbacks were oddities confined to the Sun’s polar regions.   In 2019, at 34 solar radii from the Sun, Parker Solar Probe discovered that switchbacks were not rare, but common in the solar wind. This renewed interest in the features raised new questions: Where are they coming from and how do they form and evolve? Were they forged at the surface of the Sun, or shaped by some process kinking magnetic fields in the solar atmosphere? The new findings, in press at the Astrophysical Journal, finally confirm one origin point near the solar surface. More information here. || ",

            "description": "Little more than a year into its mission, Parker Solar Probe has returned gigabytes of data on the Sun and its atmosphere. The very first science from the Parker mission is just beginning to be shared, and five researchers presented new findings from the mission at the fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union on Dec. 11, 2019. Their research hints at the processes behind both the Sun's continual outflow of material — the solar wind — and more infrequent solar storms that can disrupt technology and endanger astronauts, along with new insight into space dust that creates the Geminids meteor shower.Speakers:Nicholeen Viall - Research Astrophysicist, NASA's Goddard Space Flight CenterTim Horbury - Professor of Physics, Imperial College LondonKelly Korreck - Astrophysicist, Head of Science Operations for SWEAP Suite, Harvard and Smithsonian Center for AstrophysicsNathan Schwadron - Presidential Chair, Norman S. and Anna Marie Waite Professor, University of New HampshireKarl Battams - Computational Scientist, U.S. Naval Research Laboratory || ",

            "description": "On a mission to “touch the Sun,” NASA's Parker Solar Probe became the first spacecraft to fly through the corona — the Sun’s upper atmosphere — passing within 3.8 million miles of the solar surface during its closest approaches. Parker Solar Probe flies through the corona at speeds up to 430,000 mph taking measurements to help scientists better understand the fundamental drivers of solar activity and space weather events that can impact life on Earth. Facing brutal heat and radiation conditions, Parker Solar Probe employs four instrument suites designed to study electric and magnetic fields, plasma, waves and energetic particles, as well as image the solar wind, the constant stream of material released by the Sun. \n\nParker Solar Probe launched on Aug. 12, 2018, from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.\n\nLearn more: https://science.nasa.gov/mission/parker-solar-probe/",
