Hoy la @esa_es ha hecho públicas las primeras imágenes de alta resolución que la sonda espacial #SolarOrbiter sacó del Sol a 77 millones de kilómetros de distancia el 30 de mayo y lo que han visto los científicos les ha dejado picuetos. ¿Qué han visto? #hilo
A primeros de febrero, como algunos recordaréis, asistí al lanzamiento de la sonda Solar Orbiter (SolO, en clara referencia a Star Wars) en las instalaciones de la Agencia Espacial Europea (ESA, por sus siglas en inglés) en Darmstadt (Alemania) a unos 20 min. a tren de Frankfurt.
Cubrí el evento para la web de la revista National Geographic y escribí este artículo sobre la misión.
