We’ve sent thousands of things into space over the years! Many of them just orbit the Earth, and some are flying out past the edges of the Solar System. In this episode, we present our favorite currently active space probes!

A new telescope, the DKIST, has given us our most direct look at the Sun ever, in the highest resolution yet. And a paper published last week has revealed how “the dunes” auroras may be more than just a new spectacle in the night sky.

The sun is beginning a new weather cycle, causing debate among scientists about how intense things are going to get, and elsewhere, scientists are looking into just how fluid our early universe was.

NASA is launching a mission to send a probe into the sun, and it's the first to be named after a living scientist: Eugene Parker and the Parker Solar Probe! Astronomers have found another hot topic, and it's the hottest planet we've ever...

Scientists have known the outside of the sun spins slower than the inside for a while, but they didn't know why until recently.

What has the highest melting point known to us? Hank Green explains in this episode of SciShow.

Phil takes us for a closer (eye safe!) look at the two-octillion ton star that rules our solar system. We look at the sun's core, plasma, magnetic fields, sunspots, solar flares, coronal mass ejections, and what all of that means for our...
