According to Business Insider, NASA is preparing to launch a spacecraft aimed at the Sun. The Parker Solar Probe is also set to become the fastest moving man-made object once it reaches space. The spacecraft will accelerate to 430,000 miles-per-hour for a six-year mission orbiting our solar system's star. The 1.5 billion-dollar probe will travel within 3.8 million miles of the solar surface, as it orbits the Sun to study it's outermost layer.
