who explored it?
Pioneer 10
Jupiter
"Pioneer 10 was" the first spacecraft to visit Jupiter, making its closest approach to the planet on December 4, 1973;
three discoveries made by the voyager space probe It photographed the Jovian system, discovered ongoing volcanic activity on the moon Io and about seven percent of the volume of Saturn's upper atmosphere is helium while almost all the rest is hydrogen what is this thing actually? A space probe that was launched by NASA when was it launched? September 5, 1977 what were its components? 16 hydrazine thrusters, three-axis stabilization gyroscopes and referencing instruments can you tell me how it communicated? he craft normally transmits data to Earth over Deep Space Network Channel 18, using a frequency of either 2.3 GHz or 8.4 GHz, while signals from Earth to Voyager are transmitted at 2.1 GHz which planetary bodies did it touch or rather observe during its journey? Jupitar and saturn is there any spot on the former planet? Yes. The Great Red Spot when was it explored? December 4, 1973

Jupiter [SEP] Introduction
Surrounding Jupiter is a faint planetary ring system and a powerful magnetosphere. Jupiter has 79 known moons, including the four large Galilean moons discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610. Ganymede, the largest of these, has a diameter greater than that of the planet Mercury. "Pioneer 10 was" the first spacecraft to visit Jupiter, making its closest approach to the planet on December 4, 1973; "Pioneer 10" identified plasma in Jupiter's magnetic field and also found that Jupiter's magnetic tail was nearly 800 million kilometers long, covering the entire distance to Saturn. Jupiter has been explored on a number of occasions by robotic spacecraft, beginning with the "Pioneer" and "Voyager" flyby missions from 1973 to 1979, and later by the "Galileo" orbiter, which arrived at Jupiter in 1995.
