High-Level Project Summary
For centuries, the sun has been a great mystery, civilizations have been looking forward to it with reverence because it is the largest star they have seen, and it has been surrounded by questions from scientists and they would like to study it And that's actually what the Parker probe did The Parker probe.. The first probe was able to touch the sun, take actual samples from it and study it up close. Our project is a game, and our goal is to educate young people about the importance of Parker in an entertaining and entertaining way.. Where we decided to get out of the boredom of articles to put information into a game, we achieve our goal of Science and entertainment.

Detailed Project Description
For centuries, the sun has been a great mystery, civilizations have been looking forward to it with reverence because it is the largest star they have seen, and it has been surrounded by questions from scientists and they would like to study it
And that's actually what the Parker probe did
The Parker probe.. The first probe was able to touch the sun, take actual samples from it and study it up close.
Our project is a game, and our goal is to educate young people about the importance of Parker in an entertaining and entertaining way.. Where we decided to get out of the boredom of articles to put information into a game, we achieve our goal of Science and entertainment.
The game is interactive،
We did not put the information silently, but we put it in the form of questions, and whenever the player answered correctly, he was rewarded with points
In the game, we presented general information about Parker, some possible problems, how scientists handled them, some of the risks he faced on his journey and the mistakes that happened to his path،
And I directed it from the Earth, passing by Venus, then to the sun, and what it was exposed to from the solar wind, cosmic dust, plasma, and not forgetting the harsh high temperatures, and we explained how scientists were able to address these problems..
And we presented the goals for which the probe was sent
The objectives are
1tracking the flow of energy that heats the outer atmosphere of the sun
2 relay the continuous flow of solar material escaping from the sun
3 highlight the sources of wind
4-discover how to transport and accelerate particles with solar energy
5-study the weather of the sun
He even discovered and picked up things in his path that were not from his goals to which he was sent, but he benefited us greatly from them :
1 discovery of radio emissions from the atmosphere of Venus
2 capture the first-ever images of the surface of Venus at visible wavelengths
3 study of comets
4 detect the presence of a dust-free zone near the sun
He corrected the perception of scientists, where scientists imagined that the surface of the sun is round, but he revealed that the surface of the sun is filled with wrinkles, spikes and valleys.
And his findings
It gave us information about the Sun that we did not know, corrected our perceptions, refuted theories
All this is thanks to the Parker probe, and Parker is still discovering things and completing its trajectory accurately
And hopefully he'll discover other things in the future....
Space Agency Data
we used data given by challenge and nasa data and Space Agency Partners
Hackathon Journey
it was ammazing and we learnt alot both techncally and non technicaly
