Spacecraft trajectories in the solar system
Spacecraft trajectories in the solar system
JPL Horizons
This is the same heliocentric solar system as the main view, with the spacecraft we carry added. Pioneer 10 and Pioneer 11 left in the early 1970s and are now far outside the planets, as are Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. JUICE and Europa Clipper are still on the cruise to Jupiter. Mariner 2 flew from Earth to Venus in 1962.
The point follows the date you set. Probes today adds where each craft is on the present day, when the ephemeris still covers that date. Open a name for the launch, the current distance from the Sun, and the story of the flight.
