Montage of planets and some moons that the two Voyager spacecraft have visited and studied. It is the only program that visited all four outer planets. A total of nine spacecraft have been launched on missions that involve visits to the outer planets; all nine missions involve encounters with Jupiter, with four spacecraft also visiting Saturn.

[71] Juno: Jupiter 5 August 2011 4 July 2016 entered orbit: 1,795 days (4 y, 10 m, 29 d) First solar-powered Jupiter orbiter, mission to study Jupiter's interior and magnetic environment. [72]
This is a list of space probes that have left Earth orbit (or were launched with that intention but failed), organized by their planned destination. It includes planetary probes, solar probes, and probes to asteroids and comets, but excludes lunar missions, which are listed separately at List of lunar probes and List of Apollo missions.
This is a list of all spacecraft landings on other planets and bodies in the Solar System, including soft landings and both intended and unintended hard impacts. The list includes orbiters that were intentionally crashed, but not orbiters which later crashed in an unplanned manner due to orbital decay. Colour key:

The list of proposed missions to the outer planets is a listing of concept studies for an uncrewed or crewed mission to gas giants. Proposed missions to gas giants are typically based on engineering and scientific assessments of technological capabilities at the time of study.
Comparison of NASA Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and Space Shuttle spacecraft with their launch vehicles. This is a list of NASA missions, both crewed and robotic, since the establishment of NASA in 1957. There are over 80 currently active science missions. [1]
