During December, 1973, as Mariner 10 continued on its course toward Venus, recurrent problems were encountered with the feed system of the spacecraft's steerable dish antenna. The final trajectory correction maneuver, TCM-2, was accomplished on January 21, 1975, and the spacecraft passed Venus at a distance of 3585 miles on February 5, 1974. After the TCM-3 burn on March 16, Mariner 10 passed within 460 miles of Mercury on March 29. The second Mercury encounter occurred on September 21, 1974.
