Thought I should be documenting that with a poster.
Context: Juice (Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer Spacecraft) completed a successful Venus flayby on August 31. https://www.space.com/space-exploration/missions/esas-juice-spacecraft-flies-by-venus-on-its-way-to-jupiters-icy-moons

The juiceler.
Love it!
That’s a crazy path around the solar system, too: it was just at Venus, now it’s coming back to Earth to get shot back towards the sun to wind up at Jupiter. Just wild.
It’s sad that we didn’t get to see a footage of the flyby, the first Earth flyby timelapse was breathtaking.
super nice!
Amazing, love your work here 🥳
