BepiColombo
node
ESA and JAXA’s joint Mercury mission — two orbiters riding one cruise stage through a long flyby campaign. Operated by ESA; launched 2018-10-20; en route. Encounter dates are the operator’s mission record; the encounter order is an order, not a trajectory, and Atlas draws no path for it.
A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
