Mariner 2

node

The first spacecraft to complete a planetary encounter, confirming Venus’s furnace-hot surface from flyby range. Operated by NASA; launched 1962-08-27; completed. 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.
