Can Any Material Survive The Sun. Nasa’s parker solar probe is heading to the sun. A wide variety of materials might survive passing through the outer layer of the sun, but only if the spaceship is big. Thermal protection system engineer betsy congdon. The highest melting point of any compound is that of. Why won’t the spacecraft melt? This is where the material in the sun is finally cool enough that it can move around like a lava lamp. Hot blobs of plasma pick up enormous. As the sun enters its red giant phase, the outer layers will slowly lose their gravitational attraction to the core. Tungsten has the highest known melting point of any element at 3695k. So, there you have it! In the outermost parts of the sun, however, material is cooler and more opaque, largely because heavy elements, such as oxygen, absorb. The answer to “what is stronger than steel but can't handle the sun?” is graphene. If we want to get close to the sun — and for the sake of this question we do — we’re going to need something that can withstand a lot.
