Who’s gonna tell them? 👀
- They are landing on the dark side of the sun.
  
  The far side of the sun. Which is colder and has no flares.
"To the sun" - the mission name makes clear that it's to the L1 Lagrange point.
Thats awesome. How the fuck they gonna land on sun without burning ? My momma always told me that sun is too hot
- Just go at night dummy.
