On The Way To The Sun

High-Level Project Summary

Parker’s Solar Probe. Not many people are aware of the existence of Parker’s Solar Probe. Now, what is Parker’s Solar Probe? We are Group Mylo from Sibu and we’ve prepared a flipbook to show you the basics of the Parker Solar Probe. Parker Solar Probe is a space probe launched by NASA in 2018 with the objective to make observations of the outer corona of the Sun. The information obtained are important for scientists to learn more about the influence of the Sun towards the Earth and other bodies in the Solar System. For example, it allows humans to find out about solar phenomena such as solar flares, solar winds, corona mass ejection, and many more.

Detailed Project Description

We have made a flipbook on Parker Solar Probe. The flipbook includes the rocket containing solar probe flying into space before releasing Parker Solar Probe into space. The solar probe will then orbit around the sun with the help of Venus' gravity to steer it towards the Sun. The function of our project is to spread awareness about the Parker Solar Probe to the younger generation.

Hackathon Journey

It was fun and interesting. We had a whale of a time completing this challenge. We learnt to work in a team. Although one of our team members fell ill, we continued to push forward and work hard on the challenge. We would like to thank all our guardians, teachers and especially the staff of NASA.
