The closest approach to the planet was on December 4, 1973, at a range of 132,252 kilometers ( Template:Convert/round mi). Photography of Jupiter began November 6, 1973, at a range of 25,000,000 kilometers ( Template:Convert/round mi), and a total of about 500 images were transmitted. Between July 15, 1972, and February 15, 1973, it became the first spacecraft to traverse the asteroid belt. It was launched on March 2, 1972, by an Atlas-Centaur expendable vehicle from Cape Canaveral, Florida. Its electric power was supplied by four radioisotope thermoelectric generators that provided a combined 155 watts at launch. Pioneer 10 was assembled around a hexagonal bus with a 2.74 meters ( Template:Convert/outAnd) diameter parabolic dish high-gain antenna, and the spacecraft was spin stabilized around the axis of the antenna. This space exploration project was conducted by the NASA Ames Research Center in California, and the space probe was manufactured by TRW Inc. Thereafter, Pioneer 10 became the first spacecraft to achieve escape velocity from the Solar System. Pioneer 10 (originally designated Pioneer F) is an American space probe, weighing 258 kilograms ( Template:Convert/round pounds), that completed the first mission to the planet Jupiter.

ISRO also said the Mars Orbiter Spacecraft is under The award consists of a silvery pewter Moon globe cast by the Baker Art Foundry in Placerville, California, from a sculpture originally created by Don Davis, the well-known space and astronomical artist, ISRO said. In 2009, the NSS, an independent non-profit educational membership organisation, dedicated to the creation of a space faring civilisation, presented a similar award to ISRO in recognition of the great accomplishment they have made in the success of the Lunar Probe, Chandrayaan-1. The ISRO spacecraft was launched on its nine-month-long odyssey on a homegrown PSLV rocket from Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh on Novemand had escaped the earth’s gravitational field on December 1. >successfully placed its low-cost Mars spacecraft in orbit around the red planet in its very first attempt, breaking into an elite club of three - U.S., Russia and Europe - who have successfully undertaken missions to Mars or its orbit. Scripting space history, India on September 24, 2014 It said the NSS presented the award in recognition of ISRO’s efforts in accomplishing the Mars Mission in its very first attempt. Space pioneer award for the year 2015 was presented to Indian Space Research Organisation in the Science and Engineering category during the 34th Annual International Space Development Conference held at Toronto in Canada during May 20-24, 2015, Bengaluru-headquartered ISRO said on its website. The country’s low-cost Mars mission, which is in rendezvous with the red planet for an extended period, has been presented with the space pioneer award for 2015 by the U.S.
