The Parker Solar Probe of NASA has broken its own record for the fastest vehicle humans ever built. The probe flew past the sun at a speed of more than 585,801 kilometres per hour (364,000 miles per hour) or roughly 101 miles per second. The Parker Solar Probe might resolve the riddle as to why our star's outer atmosphere is so much significantly warmer than its surface. The Parker Solar Probe will also look into why there is so much dirt near the sun. The Parker Solar Probe's records may be beaten sometime in the near future.
