Scheduled to launch on Feb. 27, NASA's PUNCH mission could revolutionize space weather forecasts, unify the solar corona and the heliosphere, and help improve astronomy techniques.

PUNCH's main goal is to study how the Sun's corona transforms into solar wind, a stream of charged particles that flows through our solar system. What makes the PUNCH mission special is that it is specifically aimed at bridging the gap between solar physics and solar wind physics.

NASA is launching a new mission that will use four suitcase-sized satellites weighing 64kg to study how the Sun's atmosphere creates solar wind in more detail than ever before. Solar wind and events such as coronal mass ejections can have space weather effects that ripple through the solar system.

NASA is preparing to launch PUNCH (Polarimeter to Unify the Corona and Heliosphere), a groundbreaking mission that will use four satellites to study the solar wind in 3D. The mission, set to launch on February 27 aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket,
