Very interesting story about this spacecraft being able to touch the sun's surface and go "inside the plasma". I'd guess this is one of the successful trips to know the sun, and it's curious that the conditions were quieter inside it than the surrounding solar atmosphere. I hope we have better pictures of it soon and I'm already wanting to watch a good sci-fi being realisti about the sun surface.
