Detailed Project Description

This project helps to better understand the work of this probe. We tried to tell about the work of this probe in an easy way so that it would be understandable to everyone and also wanted to interest many people in astronomy. So that people understand what an interesting job it is and how much new can be learned.

Space Agency Data

We used the data from the resources contributed to the selected challenge. In particular, the main part of the project was created by the first two articles. We also took information from the official NASA website about the Parker Solar Probe mission.

Hackathon Journey

Our team was inspired by a common desire to implement the project «On the way to the sun». We have carried out all the tasks that were necessary for this project. Any missdies we decided together, weighing all pros and cons, that helped us very much.
