Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

It's the fastest human object ever made.
At closest approach, Parker Solar Probe hurtles around the Sun at approximately 430,000 mph (700,000 kph).
That's fast enough to get from Philadelphia to Washington, D.C., in one second.
To perform its unprecedented investigations, the Parker Solar Probe and its instruments are protected from the Sun by a 4.5-inch-thick (11.43 cm) carbon-composite shield, which can withstand temperatures reaching nearly 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit (1,377 Celsius).
At the Sun's surface, the sound is estimated to be around 290 decibels, which is an incredibly high and dangerous level.
Cause: This extreme loudness is due to the violent nuclear reactions and the constant movement of plasma on its surface
