Moon transits Earth!
The Deep Impact spacecraft was the one that smacked a chunk of copper into a comet so that we could see what materials were below the surface. After the impact, the spacecraft kept going (with the mission renamed EPOXI), and it’s being used to do all sorts of interesting observations.
In late May, 2008, it turned its cameras back to Earth and observed us over the course of a several hours. During this time, from EPOXI’s point of view, the Moon passed directly in front of the Earth!"

Magellan was the first planetary spacecraft to be launched from a space shuttle. It orbited Venus in a near polar, elliptical orbit, with a minimum altitude (periapsis) of 243 kilometers (150 miles). It made detailed maps of 98% of the planet's surface using synthetic aperture radar.

Europe will produce a Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) that will be equipped with 11 scientific instruments.

This illustration shows how the Hubble Space Telescope searches for missing ordinary matter, called baryons, by looking at the light from quasars several billion light-years away. Imprinted on that light are the spectral fingerprints of the missing ordinary matter that absorbs the light at specific frequencies (shown in the colorful spectra at right). The missing baryonic matter helps trace out the structure of intergalactic space, called the "cosmic web.""

NASA - Spirit Mission Manager Reports:
"Spirit Phones Home to Set ClockSols 1491-1497, April 2, 2008
Spirit is feeling the strain of juggling activities on Mars in the face of declining power levels as the winter Sun sinks lower on the horizon. After acquiring compositional data from a rock target informally named "Wendell Pruitt," Spirit had to wait a few sols (Martian days) to have enough energy to conduct atmospheric studies and move the robotic arm out of the way for a panoramic-camera portrait of a rock target known as "Freeman." First, the rover had to make a "phone call" to Earth to correct for drift -- changes in time -- in the spacecraft clock. "

This illustration shows how the Hubble Space Telescope searches for missing ordinary matter, called baryons, by looking at the light from quasars several billion light-years away. Imprinted on that light are the spectral fingerprints of the missing ordinary matter that absorbs the light at specific frequencies (shown in the colorful spectra at right). The missing baryonic matter helps trace out the structure of intergalactic space, called the "cosmic web.""

"Spirit Phones Home to Set ClockSols 1491-1497, April 2, 2008
Spirit is feeling the strain of juggling activities on Mars in the face of declining power levels as the winter Sun sinks lower on the horizon. After acquiring compositional data from a rock target informally named "Wendell Pruitt," Spirit had to wait a few sols (Martian days) to have enough energy to conduct atmospheric studies and move the robotic arm out of the way for a panoramic-camera portrait of a rock target known as "Freeman." First, the rover had to make a "phone call" to Earth to correct for drift -- changes in time -- in the spacecraft clock. "

"Blogs / Bad AstronomyMoon transits Earth!
The Deep Impact spacecraft was the one that smacked a chunk of copper into a comet so that we could see what materials were below the surface. After the impact, the spacecraft kept going (with the mission renamed EPOXI), and it’s being used to do all sorts of interesting observations.
In late May, 2008, it turned its cameras back to Earth and observed us over the course of a several hours. During this time, from EPOXI’s point of view, the Moon passed directly in front of the Earth!"

Magellan
Magellan was the first planetary spacecraft to be launched from a space shuttle. It orbited Venus in a near polar, elliptical orbit, with a minimum altitude (periapsis) of 243 kilometers (150 miles). It made detailed maps of 98% of the planet's surface using synthetic aperture radar.

" BepiColombo will launch in 2013 on a seven-billion-km flight to the innermost world, arriving in 2019.
The 350m-euro (£260m) deal with EADS Astrium will lead to the production of major spacecraft components in Germany, Italy, France and the UK.
Europe will produce a Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) that will be equipped with 11 scientific instruments. Flying in a polar orbit, it will study Mercury for at least a year, imaging the planet's surface, generating height profiles, and collecting data on Mercury's composition and wispy atmosphere.
Japan will be responsible for the Mercury Magnetospheric Orbiter (MMO). It will investigate the planet's magnetic field with its five on-board instruments."

"Blogs / Bad AstronomyMoon transits Earth!
The Deep Impact spacecraft was the one that smacked a chunk of copper into a comet so that we could see what materials were below the surface. After the impact, the spacecraft kept going (with the mission renamed EPOXI), and it’s being used to do all sorts of interesting observations.
In late May, 2008, it turned its cameras back to Earth and observed us over the course of a several hours. During this time, from EPOXI’s point of view, the Moon passed directly in front of the Earth!"

"火星への初めての有人探査の際には、探査機をフォボスに着陸させるべきだと提案している人もいる。火星に直接着陸し、帰還の際に火星の重力を受けながら離陸するには困難が伴うことが予想されるが、フォボスに着陸すればそれが回避できるというのだ。フォボスの重力は地球の1000分の1以下だ。"
