En los \u00faltimos 30 a\u00f1os, Europa se ha situado en la vanguardia de la exploraci\u00f3n espacial con el env\u00edo de sat\u00e9lites para estudiar el Sistema Solar y el Universo en general. Algunos de los hitos fueron el encuentro con el cometa Halley en 1986, el descenso de una sonda en la luna Tit\u00e1n de Saturno en 2005, y la localizaci\u00f3n de hielo de agua debajo de la superficie de Marte. Existen otras misiones de la ESA que est\u00e1n estudiando Venus y nuestro Sol con mayor detenimiento que nunca, y que nos ofrecen maravillosas im\u00e1genes de galaxias lejanas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

La exploraci\u00f3n del Sol siempre ha estado entre las prioridades del programa de ciencia espacial de la ESA. El Sol proporciona el calor y la energ\u00eda que necesitan todos los seres vivos para su formaci\u00f3n y crecimiento en la Tierra. Sin \u00e9l, nuestro planeta estar\u00eda helado y sin vida.<\/p>\n

Spacecraft built in Europe have been very successful at looking at the Sun and exploring all around it. Some examples of these are:<\/p>\n

    A project between ESA and NASA called Ulysses, which has given us the first-ever map of the heliosphere (the area occupied by the Sun\u2019s magnetic field), from the Sun\u2019s equator to its poles<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
