Subject: mission to the sun


40 years ago I worked on the Apollo/Saturn. One of the things we proposed at that time 
was sending an appropriately modified capsule to the photosphere.
 
The scientific community explained that we would not sample the photosphere since the 
capsule would be surrounded by outgassed ablative materials.
 
Since then solar seismology has developed. Sound waves will 
travel through outgassed materials.  I would like the resurrect
that idea of a mission to the sun.  Any comments, criticisms?
