  • Calling all daredevils. You’re traveling through our Solar System when suddenly, you have the opportunity to reach out and touch our biggest and brightest celestial body.
    Touching our Sun would require a heat-resistant spacesuit, the strongest sunscreen, sunglasses and a lot of courage.
    The risks of touching the Sun are high. You could be instantly obliterated if you touched the Sun.
    Could you take the heat?

    The Sun is positively charged and the plasma is constantly in arc mode discharge. Photosphere is where almost all the fusion, heat and light generation occurs. Electric field of the Sun reaches all the way to heliopause which is negatively charged, electric field accelerates solar wind as it reaches heliopause. Cycles of Sun are driven by galactic birkeland currents going in and out of the poles.
