New Horizons takes a gravity assist at Jupiter

node

Gained about four years on the cruise to Pluto while testing every instrument on the Jupiter system. 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.
