Here's my map of all active and planned Solar System Missions and their destinations as of August 1st 2023.
The ISROs Chandrayaan 3 Moon orbiter and lander is now in a lunar transfer orbit amd will insert into Moon orbit on the 5th this Month, followed by a landing attempt around the 24th. Two more missions will likely launch om Aigust: The Japanese SLIM (Smart Lander for Investigating Moon) lunar lander mission together with the XRISM X-ray telescope, and the Russian Luna 25.
Parker Solar Probe will do its 6th Venus flyby on the 21st to further lower its perihelion to 0.0528 AU or 7.9 million kilometer.
Data, images and documentation are available on my space exploration history GitHub repository and the associated website.
