High-Level Project Summary
Our project is a web application or website that provides information about complex scientific data about the atmosphere of the sun to people around the world irrespective of their knowledge bias. We have developed different illustrations using Blender software and Python to explain the discoveries made from the data obtained by the solar probe. The discoveries are then compared with daily life examples for the rudimentary understanding of every section. The page is designed in an attractive sense to allow users to have a hassle-free environment. This website is thus important in helping the common man understand the sun in a better way and make use of it in an effective manner.

Detailed Project Description
Regardless of a person's level of knowledge, our project is a web application or website that gives access to complex scientific information about the sun's atmosphere to people worldwide. We have created a different page for different discoveries to avoid dilemmas. We created various illustrations using the Blender software and Python to explain the discoveries made from the Parker solar probe's data. The discoveries are then compared to real-life examples to provide a basic understanding of each section.
The page is attractively designed to provide users with a hassle-free environment. This website is thus important in assisting the common man in better understanding the sun. We can make effective use of the data when we understand something in a way that involves our senses and comparison. We have used these powerful tools in order to explain every segment of the discovery.
Space Agency Data
For the simulations we ran in Blender, we used data from solar probes from the NASA space agency. We performed graphical representation for frequency variation using the information from NASA, which was really helpful. Major resources for our study came from the NASA website as well. In the beginning, completing the job was really difficult for us. However, after using the NASA Space Agency data as a reference, we had a clear understanding of the information, which allowed us to further clarify this endeavour.
Hackathon Journey
First off, doing this project gave us fantastic experiences. We, the group of four individuals with similar mentalities, entered this endeavour with great enthusiasm. We made progress throughout the project in a similar manner. We were able to see the behaviour of the sun even more clearly with the aid of the data provided by the solar probe, which was really helpful for us. Our main goal is to use our website to spread those solar-related facts to everyone. In order to complete this project, we acquired new skills and used programmes like Blender, Python, and HTML & CSS for simulations. We initially struggled to obtain knowledge on the sun, but eventually we made significant progress in this area after doing extensive research.
