Nasa launching missions to study the Sun in attempt to understand dangerous ‘space weather’ Andrew Griffin © Provided by The Independent Nasa is launching two missions that will attempt to understand the Sun and the potential danger it poses to Earth. The two newly approved missions will look at heliophysics, or the Sun and its effects on the objects around it. They will do so in the hope of better understanding the space weather that is driven by the Sun.
