The Parker Solar Probe was just lunched on its mission to the sun. Consider the Johns Hopkins University APL and the entire Parker Solar Probe operations team's technical and scientific challenges not to mention that of the project manager! What a Great Job!!! Now comes the big wait - travel to the sun.

This was the second extreme project APL was challenged to manage. The first was the New Horizons mission to Pluto. Both are simply amazing technological accomplishments! Take a look at the fact sheet. How would you like to be the project manager?

I would prefer to be the one going there, like living on Mars.

We were fortunate to have a former NASA director speak at our local PMI chapter last year. He had some very interesting insights into how to the organization functioned and some of it's failings as hard as that was to believe. I see NASA as the pinnacle of PM.

So I would be interested in seeing what techniques you are using to try and identify risks. The first thing that comes to mind is lessons learned. I would talk to everyone that was on a prior mission and ask them how things that they overcame would have been impacted with the changed criteria. Would those fixes would have worked? What other complexities would have existed in the solutions with the different environment etc.
