Mariner 10 uses Venus to reach Mercury — the first gravity assist to another planet
node
Bent its course inward at Venus, proving the manoeuvre every later multi-planet tour depends on. An event in the record — no path is drawn from it. Encounter class: gravity assist.
A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
