High-Level Project Summary
For the first time in history, a spacecraft has touched the Sun"Parker Solar Probe “touching the Sun” is a monumental moment for solar science and a truly remarkabletouching the very stuff the Sun is made of will help scientists uncover critical information about our closest star and its influence on the solar system and universe.Modern Technology has removed much of the space mystery, but there is still more to discover. Our plan is that:Creative distributions mechanisms are essential to deliver sun science and create an interactive platform and story telling activities for a combined technological and artistic approach. Building on-line sun science platform, people share for good.

Detailed Project Description
"Parker Solar Probe “touching the Sun” is a monumental moment for solar science
Parker Solar Probe provide us with deeper insights into our Sun's evolution and its impacts on our solar system, but everything we learn about our own star also teaches more information about stars in the rest of the universe.”
As it circles closer to the solar surface, Parker is making new discoveries add new data and knowledge that other spacecraft were too far away to see.
Flying so close to the Sun, Parker Solar Probe touches the Corona of the sun.
One key to understanding what keeps the spacecraft and its instruments safe, immortal is understanding the concept of heat versus temperature.
In space, the temperature can be thousands of degrees without providing significant heat to a given object or feeling hot. Why? Temperature measures how fast space particles are moving, whereas heat measures the total amount of energy that they transfer.
Particles may be moving fast (high temperature), but if there are very few of them, they won’t transfer much energy (low heat). Since space is mostly empty has open space , there are very few particles that can transfer energy to the spacecraft.
As rising heat and pressure push that material away from the Sun, it reaches a point where gravity and magnetic fields are too weak to contain it.
All the above information are amazing and we do need to provide it in a simple way to people. Through my project I have as a single purpose to translate innovative knowledge about Parker Solar Probe and exchange through interactive platforms and media to the real world. Sometimes it take 10 years the science to transfer knowledge to the general public. So our project wants to mind the sun gap .
Some examples of dissemination methods are the publication method where presenting the project idea and describing it, or promoting the Parker Solar Probe platform through conferences, workshops, collaborative art events, web sites, interactive platforms, media or mobile devices; these will be organized in various geographic regions to encourage participation. All races and genders share that little sun science and its mysteries. Inspiring programmes like concerts and festivals.
In detail, partners from industry, fashion, music, media communications and key strategic partners will be involved. Also a combination of artistic partners and IT technological partners .

Space Agency Data
I used the resources in the challenge from NASA page and I really enjoy every moment . Nasa provides for free new knowledge and also an opportunity to explore through other beautiful and creative minds. Open science and open innovation are important components where all stakeholders need to be involved in a Quadruple Helix Innovation-type model; this is where academia, universities, industry, government and citizens collaborating together in order to drive structural changes beyond the scope of any one organization can achieve on its own.
Hackathon Journey
The Hackathon of Nasa space apps push human minds forward. I really enjoy to exchange innovative knowledge transfer with many different people around the globe.
As a new student in civil engineering I am interesting to explore more about Parker Solar Probe and create new designs in the years to come for sun science and humanity. Taking care of space and figuring out how we explore sun and how we go to new places thoughtfully.
