A spacecraft launched by NASA has done what was once thought impossible. On April 28, the Parker Solar Probe successfully entered the corona of the Sun -- an extreme environment that`s roughly 2 million degrees Fahrenheit. A scientific paper describing the milestone was published in the Physical Review Letters. The historic moment was achieved thanks to a large collaboration of scientists and engineers.
