The Parker Solar Probe is a NASA spacecraft launched in 2018 to study the outer corona of the Sun, with a closest approach of 6.1 million km from the surface in December 2024. It has broken the record for the fastest object built on Earth, reaching a speed of 690,000 km/h or 191 km/s. The spacecraft was designed and built by Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory and was named after physicist Eugene Newman Parker.
