Description: Calling all daredevils. You’re traveling through our Solar System when suddenly, you have the opportunity to reach out and touch our biggest and brightest celestial body. Touching our Sun would require a heat-resistant spacesuit, the strongest sunscreen, sunglasses and a lot of courage. The risks of touching the Sun are high. You could be instantly obliterated if you touched the Sun. Could you take the heat?
