Solar System Missions update 2022-02

Here's my map of all active and future Solar System Missions as of February 1st 2022.

The James Webb telescope has arrived at the Earth/Sun L2 Lagrange point, and now just has to cool down, fine tune the mirrors and calibrate the instruments. Juno will have its 40th perijove on the 23rd, and the Parker Solar Probe its 11th perihelion at a distance of just 9.2 million kilometers.

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