High-Level Project Summary
This project is a creative way to tell young audiences the story of how Parker Solar Probe as the first human-made object enter the Sun’s atmosphere. The story is artistic way to tell the story how Peter Parker (Spiderman) meet our hero Parker Solar Probe. For this propose we create craft like Parker Solar Probe but with human attitude using recycled martials. It is important to tell the story on visual accepted way and additionally to promote ecological awareness (learn and be eco friendly).

Detailed Project Description
It is a creative and visual way of storytelling. The idea is to create craft that can be used in story where Peter Parker (Spiderman) meet our hero Parker Solar Probe. Parker Solar Probe introduce his power (heat shield, magic sunglasses, magnetic arm for collection information from the sun surface).
Promotes learning and recycling materials. It is eco friendly project promoting environment awareness. With this project I would like to achieve higher interest in children for NASA projects. For our project we use plastic straws, paper, polystyrene balls, used light bulb, metal wire etc.
We made model of the planets (Venera, Mercury, Sun and Earth) using polystyrene balls hand painted. We used light bulb to make the Parker Solar Probe. Metal wire was used for the trajectory.
Space Agency Data
Inspiration for the project was Trajectory Design.
Parker Solar Probe will use seven Venus flybys over nearly seven years to gradually shrink its orbit around the Sun, coming as close as 3.83 million miles (and 6.16 million kilometers) to the Sun, well within the orbit of Mercury and about seven times closer than any spacecraft has come before.
So for better visualization we create Venus, Mercury , Sun and the Earth it self.
Parker Solar Probe is a true mission of exploration; for example, the spacecraft will go close enough to the Sun to watch the solar wind speed up from subsonic to supersonic, and it will fly through the birthplace of the highest-energy solar particles.

Hackathon Journey
I see as a way to learn, create and make friends. We choose this challenge because it look very interesting and we can creatively tell story . Age appropriate. As approach we choose to do what we do best (making fun toy and crafts).
