when eugene parker first theorised the existence of solar wind, it was laughed at by his peers. t detected them. it's been this long journey since then, since 1962. parker wrote the paper in 1958. it's been this half—century long journey of discovery to this mission to understand this phenomenon more. when we saw that launch happen, what was that telling us in terms of the technology that has been developed and how long it's taken to get to this point? the spatial missions can last anywhere up to a decade in development, but i was there last night and the delta four heavy rocket is one of the most powerful vehicles of any kind on earth. it is powered by 2.1 million of thrust and it's exactly the vehicle needed to launch this extraordinary mission so far away. i suppose there are vast sums of money that have gone into this. what is the biggest risk in terms of getting this satellite to the place it needs to be, so close to the sun? just about every component of this mission is risky. as always, the launch is the most nerve—racking part, getting that vehicle away from earth's gravi
