My map of all active and future Solar System Missions as of November 1st 2015. Akatsuki is heading for its Venus orbit insertion attempt in December, while Hayabusa 2 will swing by Earth in the same month on the way to its destination, which has a proper name now: Ryugu. Whose pronunciation is best approximated as "Hljoo-goo", I think.
