High-Level Project Summary
We made this video to explain to children the importance of Parker’s contribution to human beings and show them the results of Parker's exploration in recent years. There are two parts to the video. The story uses simple language, interesting drawings to attract children's attention, so that children can understand what was brought out, and understand the dedication of the scientists behind every research. The second part, which is Parker’s classroom, is a supplement to the knowledge that cannot be brought out through the story. It is also an explanation for the meanings behind some of the scenes, so that they can learn more professional knowledge, and not be misled.

Detailed Project Description
Role representative
The two main characters of this story, Parker and Sunny, are of course the Parker Solar Probe and the sun in our real world, and the 'Superhero Army' who made Parker is our great team of scientists. They used their wisdom and research to create Parker, give him the ability to approach and detect Parker's secrets affecting the earth for mankind with the help of Venus.
The scene of the twenty fourth visit is our hope for the future exploration of Parker Solar Probe.
The last force like the hand represents the unknown matters yet to be discovered in the core of the sun.
Presentation
We use storytelling to show children the significance of Parker Solar Probe to human beings and the earth in a fun way. We also refer to the way of children's doodles to paint the picture of the story. In addition to attracting their attention, we can also use vivid pictures during Parker's classroom to let them know more about the topics we are discussing and introducing.
What can the projectdo
This story can be shown to children, allowing them to learn about Parker's journey and answer their myths about the sun through stories and Parker's classroom. It can also serve educational purposes, excite children's curiosity and interest, so that they will take the initiative to learn more and additional knowledge, and it can also encourage them to develop in the astronomy field, provide talented persons for the field, and create pillars for the world.
How it works
It can be used as a kindergarten or primary school teaching materials or as an enlightening reading material for parents to read to their children, or even broadcasted in television programmes.
What are the benefits
We used the storytelling method to express our ideas which allows children to have the imagination of exploring the unknown of the world, and make progress in this direction. Create new talented people for the future science industry and increase the guarantee of sustainable development of the earth.
what can be achieved in the future
We hope that this story can be broadcast through television programes to the eyes of children all over the world and become the enlightenment of all the little scientists to read, and even hope that it can be used as a teaching material for children in the classroom, so that they can better understand the true meaning of the video under the guidance of the teacher.

Hackathon Journey
Since participating in the Space Apps Challenge, everyday is a brainstorming day. From getting to know the rules and regulations to choosing the challenge until making the project itself , we are constantly looking for information, collecting new ideas. We cherish the chance to put ourselves in the shoes of children again we create the perfect storyline and way of presentation for the kids. During this competition we strive as much as possible to let go of our imagination creating this universe mentioned in our video. This two days process, includes burning the mid-night oil, but we had a lot of fun, although we might be disgusted by our sloppy looks. We ourselves also learned a lot about Parker Solar Probe and the sun, arguments happened sometimes due to different opinions and misunderstandings but everything worked out in the end. I guess that is what they meant by working with diverse people. We have also got our first experience of making a whiteboard animation video. To sum it all up, we lived our 48 hours to the fullest.
