Today in 1979, Pioneer 11 was speeding away from Saturn, giving humanity a perspective from beyond the planet that it had never have. However, Saturn was also close to solar conjunction, which led to it being increasingly hard to transmit data. The right hand version shows how bad the dropouts were.
