The Mission
To become the first spacecraft to orbit Mercury, MESSENGER must follow a path through the inner solar system, including one flyby of Earth, two flybys
of Venus, and three flybys of Mercury. This impressive journey is returning the first new spacecraft data from Mercury since the Mariner 10 mission
over 30 years ago. Here you can find details about that journey, the MESSENGER spacecraft, and the instrument payload.
So it's on it's final flyby what happens next dose it just float off into space?
THANKYOU
