The Parker Solar Probe is scheduled to launch from Cape Canaveral on Saturday, Aug. 4. The sun is one of the greatest threats to the military. A solar flare can in an instant set the U.S. military back a century by knocking out electronics on a continental or global scale. The Parker is part of ongoing efforts to understand the causes of coronal mass ejections, so we can predict and defend against them. - Image courtesy of NASA
