Solar System Missions Update 2019-07

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

The Chang'e 4 mission continues on the lunar far side, Hayabusa 2 will retrieve a sample from Asteroid Ryugu on July 11th. ISRO will attempt to launch the Chandrayaan 2 Moon mission on the 15th.

And then there are two new future missions, Dragonfly will send a quadcopter drone to Titan, Comet Interceptor will go to the Earth/Sun L2 point and wait for a comet fresh from the Oort cloud or from interstellar space to intercept.
