Agency record
JPL
Every figure on this page is counted from the committed mission records that list JPL among their agencies. None of them is maintained by hand.

Active missions are excluded from the success rate: a live mission has no outcome yet, so counting it would report a rate the records do not support. 3 of the 5 records are still active, leaving 2 concluded. A partial success is a distinct recorded outcome, so it is not counted in the numerator, but it stays in the denominator.

Where they went
Destinations

A mission with several destinations is counted under each of them, so these figures need not add up to 5.
What they did
Mission types
- Flyby
- 2
- Interstellar
- 2
- Orbiter
- 2
- Rover
- 1
- Technology demonstrator
- 1
A mission can carry several types, so these figures need not add up either. Types no mission here carries are omitted.
How they ended

These records in the directory
An agency is recorded exactly as the mission’s own sources name it, so a differently spelled or differently scoped name is a separate record with its own page rather than something folded into this one. The directory’s agency filter matches the same string this page counts.
