BepiColombo Mercury orbit insertion — declared target

node

ESA’s revised schedule states orbit insertion in late 2026 after reduced cruise thrust. A declared programme target, not a prediction: the date is the operator’s, and it may move. Encounter class: orbit insertion.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
