And it will keep getting closer to the sun until it flies through the corona, or outer atmosphere, for the first time next week, passing within 15 million miles of the solar surface.

它將繼續(xù)靠近太陽，直到下周它將首次穿過日冕或外部大氣層，經(jīng)過距離太陽表面1500萬英里內(nèi)的地方。

Parker will make 24 close approaches to the sun over the next seven years, ultimately coming within just 3.8 million miles.

帕克將在未來7年里對太陽進(jìn)行24次近距離觀測，最終和太陽僅相距380萬英里。

Launched in August, Parker is on track to set another record.

帕克于今年8月發(fā)射，有望在晚些時候再創(chuàng)造一項紀(jì)錄。

It will surpass Helios-2's speed record of 153,454 miles per hour, relative to the sun.

它將超過赫利奧斯2號探測器創(chuàng)下的、每小時153454英里的相對太陽行進(jìn)速度的紀(jì)錄。
