Artists impression of Ulysses approacing the Sun
Artists impression of the Ulysses spacecraft approaching the Sun. Due for launch by the space shuttle in October 1990, Ulysses will study the Sun & interplanetary medium out of the plane of the Solar System. The spacecrafts initial trajectory will take it on a 14-month flight to Jupiter, where the giant planets gravity will be used as a slingshot to hurl the spacecraft out of the plane of the Solar System & back towards the Sun. Two & a half years later its orbit will take it over both of the Suns poles. In this artwork, solar prominences erupt from the Suns surface; the darker areas on the face of the Sun are sunspots
