  • In 2018, NASA launched the Parker Solar Probe, which is swooping to within 6.2 million kilometers of the sun’s surface - the closest we’ve ever gotten to the Sun. If we wanted a closer look, we’ll have to face incredibly hot temperatures, dangerous solar flares, and crushing pressures. At the core, we’ll find what amounts to the biggest nuclear reactor in the solar system.

      well I wouldn't say its painful as you'd be melted in an instant unlike being burned alive slowly like in a fire. I'd be so fast that your nociceptors would not react to you being pulverized. AT BEST you'd feel a pinch and then nothing more (Cuz you'll be dead)

    @4:10 "I can't see" any good reason it would be pitch black (assuming a housing, lens and sensor strong enough to survive there). While distances between photonic absorption and transmission is greatly reduced in such density, it doesn't reach 0. The interface between the Sun's innards and the lens would seem to allow for at least some photons to refract through the lens. If anything, I would think that there would be no actual focus as any photons making it through the lens would be coming from random directions but it would still provide light. Of course, I'm probably wrong but I would love to hear an explanation as to how.

      How do you build pressure w/o a force of containment, like a kettle on the stove, w/o such pressure being mitigated and released w/o Solar Eruptions in 360 degrees w/ zero issues since there’s supposedly no Solid Surface beneath the Upper Atmosphere.
      How.......

    • @metalgear-
      @metalgear- Před 4 lety

      Andrés Descalzo - it’s literally impossible for the Sun to explode in random directions rather than 360 degrees if nothing is holding the force back like Solid Ground releasing steam and lava through the visible Upper Atmosphere
