Figure 5-18. Pioneer 10 and 11 encounters with Jupiter as viewed from the celestial North Pole. Pioneer 10 swings around the giant in the counterclockwise direction, but Pioneer 11 attacks the planet in a clockwise course. Jupiter rotates counterclockwise in this view. The time in hours before and after closest approach is given by the numbers alongside each trajectory.
