- NASA's Parker Solar Probe will soon explore the Sun's outer atmosphere, which can reach 2 million degrees Fahrenheit. But the difference between temperature and heat means the spacecraft's 4.5-inch-thick carbon shield will only reach 2,500 degrees F, keeping the probe at a comfortable 85 degrees F. http://www.astronomy.com/news/2018/08/how-to-protect-parker 611 comments space
