The engineering and pure science are enormous contributions … how or what agencies use the information gained to possibly mitigate the circumstances you mentioned earlier about dangers such as with power grids, etc??

Do you know if there be any citizen science projects where students and communities can help scientists of the Parker Solar Probe crunch data as in Galaxy Zoo where people can classify galaxies?

Thank you for sharing your expertise Dr. Raouafi. Has parker solar probe detected more solar wind activity and collected more data on the solar wind now that the sunspot activity has increased more in the past year? In other words Is there a correlation to number of sunspots and solar wind?
