Voyager 1 closest approach to Jupiter

node

The first of the four gravity assists that carried the programme outward. Beyond the trajectory change, the encounter returned the first detailed images of the Galilean moons, found a faint ring around Jupiter, and characterised a magnetosphere far larger and more energetic than models had suggested.

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