Solar System Missions Update 2020-06

Here's my map of all active and future Solar System Missions as of June 1st 2020.

On the 7th Parker Solar Probe will have its fifth perijelion at 0.13 AU distance. A bit further out Solar Orbiter has its first perihelion on the 15th, while it is still busy flying through the tail of comet C/2019 Y4 ATLAS at the beginnig of the month. Even further out Juno has the 27th perijove on the 2nd.

The Mars missions Perseverance, Al Amal and Tianwen-1 all remain on track for a launch in July or early August.

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