racing through the sun

[jimmer]

is it possible to fly a rocketship with full crew actually through the sun and come out the other side?

[rja211077]

no. it's too hot.

[smorodina]

Hot enough to boil a monkey's bum!

About as possible as it is to fly anything through the middle of a continuous nuclear explosion, though a controlled one. You'd have a bit of difficulty escaping the gravitational pull getting out and away from the other side, too !!

[quattro]

You can if you go at night

[darth vader]

no. Are you just contemplating the fact that current technology has heat resistant material? Or hypothesising the sun not being solid? Here's another reason why - the sun is very far away and the crew would die of boredom before getting there

[gazzawazza]

I personally wouldn't try it now those sun protection creams have been exposed as rubbish.

i'd like to try coz i'd get a lovely suntan!!!!!
