NASA’s Parker Solar Probe passed the sun last year, snapping images that NASA released July 10. The images were taken 3.8 million miles from the solar surface, which is the closest any probe has ever gotten to the sun. The close-ups show the solar wind and a constant stream of charged particles on the sun’s surface.
