Although the spacecraft is
within several degrees of the ecliptic, it travels from
high to low Jovigraphic latitudes and covers a wide range
of local times. On 19 November 2003, the Jovigraphic latitude
is 75.5 deg at a distance of 2128 Rj and a local time (LT)
near noon. The closest approach of 1683 Rj occurs on 4 February
2004 at 49.5 deg latitude near 17 hours LT. The formal encounter
ends on 1 April 2004 at 1926 Rj, a latitude of 21.5 deg
and a LT near 17:30.
