Parker solar probe mission design

A mission to the sun originally called Solar Probe was first considered in 1958 and stayed in concept and feasibility studies for five decades until 2007, when a new mission design was created that changed the original mission architecture. The re-designed mission was named Solar Probe Plus due to significant advantages in technical implementation and science return, and it was renamed Parker Solar Probe (PSP) in 2017. PSP was launched on August 12, 2018 as the first mission to touch the Sun. This paper presents an overview ...

Solar Probe Plus: Impact of light scattering by solar system dust on star tracker performance

NASA s upcoming Solar Probe Plus mission will be the first to approach the Sun as close as 8.5 solar radii from the surface and provide in-situ observations of the Sun s corona. In the absence of observational data (e.g., Helios, Pioneer), for distances less than 0.3 AU, the ambient dust distribution close to the Sun remains poorly known and limited to model extrapolation for distances < 1 AU. For the Solar Probe Plus (SPP) mission it is critical to characterize the inner solar system dust environment to evaluate potential i ...
