Figure 5-17. Pioneer 10 and 11 encounters with Jupiter, as viewed from Earth. The hour time marks show spacecraft locations relative to the periapsis target point. TRW where the spacecraft were built, told the press that the total radiation dose Pioneer 11 would be expected to receive will be less than Pioneer 10's, <<and we're betting that's what counts.>>
