Pioneer 7 and Pioneer 8 are in solar orbits with 1. 1 AUs distance to the Sun.

Sedna's orbit ( left ) is longer than 100 Tm, but other lengths are between 10 and 100 Tm: Comet Hale-Bopp's orbit ( lower, faint orange ); one light-day ( yellow spherical shell with yellow Vernal point arrow as radius ); the heliosphere's Heliosphere # Termination shock | termination shock ( blue shell ); and other arrows show positions of Voyager 1 ( red ) and Pioneer 10 ( green ).

During the 1990s, Voyager 1 overtook the slower deep-space probes Pioneer 10 and Pioneer 11 to become the most distant manmade object from Earth, a record that it will keep for the foreseeable future.

Voyager 1 and Pioneer 10 are the most widely separated manmade objects anywhere, since they are traveling in roughly opposite directions from the Solar System.

Following a private service, a public memorial was held on June 1, in Pioneer Park, in Nevada City.

Several spacecraft ( Mariner 10, Pioneer 11, and Voyagers 1 and 2 ) had performed gravity assist manoeuvres in the 1970s.

Had this mission and spacecraft been launched, it would have been designated Pioneer 12 ; that designation was later applied to the Pioneer Venus Orbiter.

Its ground for this recommendation was that, while petitioner claimed before the local board August 17, 1956 ( as evidenced by its memorandum in his file of that date ), that he was devoting 100 hours per month to actual preaching, the headquarters of the Jehovah's Witnesses reported that he was no longer doing so and, on the contrary, had relinquished both his Pioneer and Bible Student Servant positions.
