Watch NASA launch the Parker Solar Probe, on its way to 'touch' the sun (CNET News)

Watch NASA launch one of the most ambitious missions to "touch" the sun with the Parker Solar Probe. The Probe will travel within 4 million miles of the sun to study solar winds and learn how our home star affects weather patterns in space.

Who is filming this in outer space, do the have a film crew up there in space for all this space action ?

I am really glad Eugene Parker was able to witness his thesis alive and well.

[Pieterseboy]

i always wonder why no camera's are ever put on these rockets

[MissCassiePlay]

Delta IV Heavy is my favorite space vehicle because it has "Strapon" boosters. : )

[vinceunlimited]

Where they are going is extremely hot. That's why they launched at night. To sneak up on the sun and get a quick Instagram selfie

‘’Hey Sun I’m a Rocket nice to meet you.’’

93, 000, 000 miles away and they used 1/2 there fuel in the first couple min. How long is it going to take to get there? were are they going to refuel? the last part were they are in space looked like a kids video game, did it look real to any one else.

Do they have insurance on this rocket incase it runs into a satellite or a meteor? Hey speakin of satellites, I didn't see any of them orbiting the earth in there space shot.

With all the money invest in that, for what?

i wonder how much nasa saved building their own rockets to send it to the sun vs using spaceX, and how much more powerful is this rocket vs a spaceX rocket?

[dizzyfan]

Then an explosion happen! And pushes the sun, which causes the earth to explode. Then a scientists put his child into a ship, and send it to Mars were he lives with the aliens.

spacex's live feed is much better than nasa, including landing every first stage that just fell to the ocean, these moderators make me sleep

That's is a very expensive flight, I wonder why they did not considered/ask space x to sent the probe.
