English: Plots of heliocentric positions of the interstellar probes (squares), and outer planets, Pluto, Arrokoth and Earth (circles) from 1972 to 2020, and launch and flyby dates by CMG Lee.
Plot 1 is a view of the solar system to scale from north perpendicular to the ecliptic with the First Point of Aries upwards; plots 2 to 4 are third-angle orthographic projections of their trajectories up to 2020 at 20% scale of plot 1.
Markers denote positions on 1 January of each year, with every fifth year labelled. Data is from COHOWeb and Horizons On-Line Ephemeris System.
