With the passed 35th anniversary of Pioneer 10 Jupiter flyby ( 03 Dec 1973 ) it's time to look forward to the 30th anniversary of the Pioneer 11 Saturn flyby ( 01 Sep 1979 ) as illustrated here:

If I remember from reading an article years ago there was a proposal to fly Pioneer 11 through the Cassini Division of Saturn's rings as it was thought to be clear. Lucky they didn't because of course the Voyagers later found that it was by no means a clear division. blink.gif

The historic Pioneer 10 flyby of Jupiter took place just over a year before I was born (and Pioneer 11 the month before) and for some reason in my mind the band Wings's song "Jet" seems to be a very appropriate number for the Pioneer 10 encounter.... cool.gif

Here are two P10 images (A5 and A7) that I tried to correct for the planet's rotation and spacecraft motion. Still very rough, but I think that the relative positions of the cloud features are closer to reality, although there are still some scale issues.
