NASAs Parker Solar Probe launches tonight to touch the sun

NASA's ambitious mission to go closer to the Sun than ever before is set to launch in the small hours between Friday and Saturday at 3:33 AM Eastern from Kennedy Space Center in Florida, to be precise. The Parker Solar Probe, after a handful of gravity assists and preliminary orbits, will enter a stable orbit around the enormous nuclear fireball that gives us all life and sample its radiation from less than 4 million miles away. Believe me, you don't want to get much closer than that.
