Launched in March 1972, the spacecraft took a 21-month, 620-million-mile journey to Jupiter, during which Pioneer penetrated the previously unexplored asteroid belt without mishap, eliminating the long held fear that high-speed particles or huge asteroids might destroy the spacecraft.  This film tells of the findings recorded by the scientific instruments and cameras onboard. We see its unmistakeable great red spot (mark  01:30 ) and various animations before seeing Gerard Kuiper, considered by many to be the father of modern planetary science, who shares a number of his photographs. The actual launch of the spacecraft is shown at mark  09:33 , followed by several animations of Pioneer 10 mixed with scenes from mission control. Grainy images — gathered from scans taken by the spacecraft — are shown on a monitor at mark  14:22 . The narrator speculates whether some form for life exists beneath the planet’s thick clouds, with astronomer Carl Sagan detailing the possible reasons why beginning at mark  15:22 . At mark  16:05  we see the familiar “picture postcard of what nude human female an male bodies look like as well as Earth’s location in the galaxy. For the first time ever, we see “crescent” images of Jupiter (mark  22:20 ). Even more animations follow as the narrator explains how more mysteries are waiting to be unlocked.  After leaving the Jovian system and wandering endlessly through the Milky Way galaxy, carrying a message for possible extraterrestrial beings, radio communications were lost with Pioneer 10 in 2003.
