![Illustration of satellite in front of glowing orange celestial body](/sites/default/files/styles/list_page_thumbnail/public/NASA_Parker_Solar_Probe_rendering.jpg?h=90c266c4&itok=KqHQKRNt)
A shield assembly that protects an instrument measuring ion and electron fluxes for a NASA mission to touch the Sun was tested in extreme experimental environments at Oak Ridge National Laboratory—and passed with flying colors. Components aboard Parker Solar Probe, which will endure th...
