Spacecraft attempts closest-ever approach to the Sun

A NASA spacecraft is attempting to make history with the closest-ever approach to the Sun.

Axar.az reports that the Parker Solar Probe is plunging into our star's outer atmosphere, enduring brutal temperatures and extreme radiation.

It is out of communication for several days during this burning hot fly-by and scientists will be waiting for a signal, expected at 05:00 GMT on December 28, to see if it has survived.

The hope is that the probe could help us to better understand how the Sun works.
