The objectives of this phase included comparative studies of the Jovian and Saturnian systems and studies of the inter-planetary medium at increasing distances from the sun. Scientific reports on the mission through the Jupiter encounters may be found in the Journal of Geophysical Research (86, 8123–8841, 1981). With the completion of the mission through Saturn and with both spacecraft continuing to function well, a second mission phase was added with the objectives of exploring Uranus and investigating the interplanetary medium to beyond 20 AU. The Uranus flyby has been chosen so that a third phase can include the exploration of Neptune and extend the investigation of the interplanetary medium to distances beyond 40 AU and at distances of more than 20 AU above the ecliptic. | Item Type: | Article |
