Here's my map of all active and future Solar System Missions as of September 1st 2022.
OK, this month for real: Artemis 1 will finally launch on the 3rd to a near rectilinear halo orbit (NRHO) at the Moon as the first test of the giant SLS rocket. Recently launched Korean Danuri and Capstone Moon missions will reach lunar orbit in December and November, respectively.
Juno will have its 45th perijove this Month, with an Europa flyby at 320 km distance, Bepi Colombo the 4th Mercury flyby, Solar Orbiter the 3rd Venus gravity assist, Parker Solar Probe the 13th perihelion at 0.0615 AU distance.
So, in other words, its gonna be a busy Month.
Data, images and documentation are available on my space exploration history GitHub repository and the associated website.
