Solar System Missions Update 01/2019

Here's my map of all active and future Solar System Missions as of January 1st 2019.

The year will start off good with New Horizons flyby of 2014 MU69 'Ultima Thule', followed by the Chang'e 4 mission with the first ever soft landing on the lunar far side, presumably on January 3rd. At the end of the Month another Moon mission may launch, the Indian Chandrayaan 2 of ISRO.

InSIGHT is still active on Mars, OSIRIS-REx at Asteroid Bennu, and Hayabusa 2 at Asteroid Ryugu.

Data, images and documentation are available on my space exploration history GitHub repository and the associated website.
