About this audiobook
The story of Ulysses, the joint ESA-NASA spacecraft that flew out of the ecliptic plane to survey the Sun over its poles: the Jupiter gravity assist that bent its orbit, the discovery of the two solar winds, the polar passes at solar minimum and maximum, and the eighteen-year odyssey that gave the trade its only three-dimensional view of the heliosphere.
