... ESA/NASA Solar Probe . ... Mission Operations . ... Ulysses is a solar probe launched in 1990 that has made the first-ever measurements of the Sun from a polar orbit. ... Formerly called the International Solar-Polar Mission (ISPM), Ulysses is an exploratory mission carried out jointly by ESA and NASA. ... NASA provided the launch aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery (together with the upper-stage motor) and the spacecraft power generator, and is responsible for the remaining experiments. ...
... Galileo Probe . The Galileo spacecraft was designed to study Jupiter's atmosphere, satellites, and surrounding magnetosphere for two years. ... From there, Galileo will spend more than five years traveling to Jupiter, where it will become the first spacecraft to make direct measurements from an instrumented probe within Jupiter's atmosphere. ... This image, taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, shows the predicted site at which the Galileo Probe will enter Jupiter's atmosphere on December 7, 1995. ...
