SpaceTRC / Mission Tracker
Where are our spacecraft right now?
From Voyager to Parker, BepiColombo to Europa Clipper: the real position of 13 spacecraft in the solar system, their distance from Earth, signal delay and next key moment. Positions come from NASA JPL’s official orbit solutions.
Positions are taken from Horizons, the system NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory uses to navigate spacecraft, and refreshed every few hours. Mission statuses and dates are checked against agency announcements.

The solar system today
The map shows where the planets and spacecraft are today. Tap a spacecraft to highlight its card. “Near Earth” (to 1.75 AU) and “Inner solar system” (to Jupiter) are true to scale; “Whole solar system” uses a logarithmic scale reaching the Voyagers.

13 missions, with live values
Distances and speeds are computed from live orbit data. Signal delay is the time a command travelling at the speed of light takes to reach the spacecraft.
See Space News for this week’s developments, the launch schedule for upcoming launches and Return to the Moon for the lunar programme.
