Mars Science Laboratory - Artist view - Mars Science Laboratory - Artist view - Artist view of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) probe, approaching the surface of Mars. In August 2012 this probe should deposit a rover named Curiosity on the surface of the planet Mars. This is an artist's concept of Nasa's Mars Science Laboratory spacecraft approaching Mars. The Curiosity rover is safely tucked inside the spacecraft's aeroshell. The mission's approach phase begins 45 minutes before the spacecraft enters the Martian atmosphere. It lasts until the spacecraft enters the atmosphere. For navigation purposes, the atmospheric entry point is (2,188 miles (3,522 kilometers) above the center of the planet. This illustration depicts a scene after the spacecraft's cruise stage has been jettisoned, which will occur 10 minutes before atmospheric entry. The Mars Science Laboratory spacecraft is being prepared for launch during Nov. 25 to Dec. 18, 2011. Landing on Mars is in early August 2012. In a pri

Solar Orbiter - Solar Orbiter is a solar observation satellite of the European Space Agency (ESA) developed with the participation of NASA, which is scheduled to launch in February 2019 and begin observations around 2022. The main objective of this scientific mission is to study the processes behind the solar wind, the heliospheric magnetic field, the energetic solar particles and the magnetic field of the Sun. Esa's Solar Orbiter is set to provide new views of our star, in particular providing close-up observations of the Sun's poles. Following its launch in February 2019 and three-year journey using gravity swingbys at Earth and Venus, Solar Orbiter will operate from an elliptical orbit around the Sun. At its closest it will approach our star within 42 million kilometers, closer than planet Mercury. An artist's impression of Solar Orbiter in front of the stormy Sun is depicted here

Artist's view of the New Horizons probe near Pluto - The New Horizons spacecraft near Pluto - Artist's view of the New Horizons probe near Pluto and its largest satellite Charon. The New Horizons probe was launched on 19 January 2006 to Jupiter, then Pluto and Charon, which it reached in 2015 and Kuiper's objects in 2020. Artist's concept of the New Horizons spacecraft as it approaches Pluto and its largest moon, Charon, in July 2015. The craft's miniature cameras, radio science experiment, ultraviolet and infrared spectrometers and space plasma experiments will characterize the global geology and geomorphology of Pluto and Charon, map their surface compositions and temperatures, and examine Pluto's atmosphere in detail. The spacecraft's most prominent design feature is a nearly 7 - foot (2.1 - meter) dish antenna, through which it will communicate with Earth from as far as 4.7 billion miles (7.5 billion kilometers) away

New Horizons closest approach to Pluto - Artist's view of the New Horizons probe near Pluto and its largest satellite Charon. The New Horizons probe was launched on 19 January 2006 to Jupiter, then Pluto and Charon, which it will reach in 2015 and Kuiper's objects in 2020. Nasa's New Horizons unmanned spacecraft flies into the shadow of dwarf planet Pluto and its moon Charon. New Horizons has been en route to Pluto since its launch from Earth in 2006 and is scheduled to make its closest approach on 14 July 2015. New Horizons will be traveling at a velocity relative to Pluto of 30,800 mph, far too fast for it to enter orbit around and become a satellite of Pluto. Instead after passing Pluto, New Horizons will continue farther into the Kuiper belt searching for other objects with diameters of 30 to 60 miles. New Horizons is about the size and shape of a grand piano and weighed 1,054 pounds at launch. The high - gain dish antenna is about 7 feet in diameter and is employed for communicati

Under the rings of Saturn - Saturn Atmosphere Probe - Artwork - A space probe descends through the clouds of Saturn. A halo is visible around the Sun. To see the Saturn rings this open, you would have to be far north or south of the planet's equator. They are backlit, and so look a little peculiar. A probe has been added to provide a visual focal point

The Dawn probe near Ceres - Artist's view - Dawn approaches Ceres - Artist view of the Dawn probe near the dwarf planet Ceres. In February 2015 the unmanned Dawn spacecraft is scheduled to arrive at the dwarf planet Ceres. The 65 foot long, 2.5 ton probe was launched from the Earth in 2007, passed March in 2009, and went into orbit around the protoplanet Vesta in July 2011 where it stayed until September 2012. Once in orbit around Ceres, Dawn is expected to operate for about a year making observations of this largest object in the asteroid belt. In this image Dawn's three xenon electrostatic ion thrusters can be seen emitting ionized xenon's characteristic blue/magenta glow, gently propelling the probe toward Ceres. While the ion engines have relatively low specific thrust (about equal to the weight of a few sheets of paper), they can operate continuously for long periods making efficient use of the approximately 1,000 pounds of xenon propellant onboard.
