Article recently updated to GA status. Very detailed and intricate with extensive uses of images and other detailed graphs. Article is cited well with no problems regaridng copryright issues. Good to go. - Toadboy123 (talk) 18:56, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Adding this nice image for consideration. Always nice to see the most distant human made objects on the front page. Thriley (talk) 22:09, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

@Thriley, Toadboy123, and The Herald: Unless I am mistaken, I find the hook sentence in the article but it is not cited. Per our WP:DYKCRIT The hook fact should be cited in the article, no later than the end of the sentence it appears in. Bruxton (talk) 18:48, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

@The Herald: Can you get the citation of the hook done? Toadboy123 (talk) 18:52, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, the cite added was a lil old. I have updated it with a recent one. Thanks. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 19:02, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

@Thriley, Toadboy123, and The Herald: Thank you, another issue is missing citations for the end of paragraphs: 3rd paragraph in the Encounter with Jupiter section and 5th paragraph in the Encounter with Uranus section. Bruxton (talk) 19:13, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
