Scientific paper

A combination of sophisticated computer animation and shuttle footage describe the missions of Ulysses, Galileo, and Magellan satellites to the solar system. Ulysses, launched in October 1990 by the European Space Agency, will study the sun. Galileo, launched in October 1989, will probe the Jovian system by releasing a probe that will descend into Jupiter's atmosphere and by using 12 instruments which will study Jupiter's 16 moons, its atmosphere, and its radiation and magnetic fields. Magellan, released from Space Shuttle Atlantis in May 1989, uses a synthetic aperture radar to probe through Venus' dense atmosphere to map its planetary surface. A computer animation simulates flying over the surface of Venus.
