NASA and other international space exploration agencies created these missions to get to know and learn about our star up close. Designed for extreme space conditions, these operations aim to explore the Sun s properties and how it affects space weather, and how such phenomena can affect earth technologies like radio communication, satellites, and many more.
To quote NASA itself, The goal of these missions is to understand how the Sun works and how it affects the space environment.
As significant a milestone as these missions were, those are just stepping stones to spearhead more solar explorations.
As a follow up to these monumental and possible groundbreaking feats, NASA once again confirmed two more missions to add to its growing list of solar exploration missions. This time, they approved two heliophysics mission - the EUVST and EZIE.
