   How close is NASA's Parker Solar Probe to Venus?

   • NASA's Parker Solar Probe should have completed its seventh swing past Venus on Nov. 6 — the spacecraft's final maneuver around the amber planet — in a flyby that nudged the probe onto a trajectory that will take it within 3.8 million miles of the sun's surface. That will be the closest that any human-built object has come to our star.

   Did Venus lose its atmosphere?

   • Venus' thick carbon dioxide blanket traps heat on the hellish world, the picture of a greenhouse world gone amok. And Mars used to have a plush atmosphere and a wet surface, then lost each in turn. Scientists hope that Parker Solar Probe's measurements will help them better understand atmospheric loss in general, not just today at Venus.
