This is a joke- right?
“The Solar Plus Probe will come within four million miles of the sun’s surface, facing heat and radiation like no spacecraft has endured before.”
Well - within four million miles is still a lot closer than we are. But I do wonder - they are going all that way, they might as well land, grab some samples and bring them back.
(I know WE could use some samples - it’s been rainy and cloudy here for numerous days.)
