NASA Just Flew Through the Sun’s Atmosphere

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe is revolutionizing our understanding of the Sun by flying closer than ever before, capturing jaw-dropping images from within the solar atmosphere.

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has captured the most detailed images ever taken near the Sun, recorded from just 3.8 million miles away from its surface.

These up-close images reveal structures within the solar wind, a continuous flow of charged particles that the Sun releases into space at speeds over 1 million miles per hour.

The new visuals and data are giving scientists critical insights into how the solar wind forms and behaves, which is key to understanding how it influences Earth.

ALL SOLAR for Five Hours

Greece ran entirely on renewable energy for five hours last Friday for the first time ever - using solar, wind and hydroelectric power.

It reached a record high of 3,106MWh (megawatt hours) of electricity at 9am local time (7am UK time), according to IPTO, the country's independent power transmission operator.

IPTO said: "For the first time in the history of the Greek electricity system, the demand was covered 100% from renewable energy sources."

Greece aims to more than double its green energy capacity as it hopes renewables will account for at least 70% of its energy mix by 2030.  READ MORE...
