In our Solar System, the best view we get is often from afar. JPL instruments and spacecraft have been throughout our Solar System. Images at wavelengths from UV, visible, and into the thermal IR have yielded maps of many bodies, inferred their likely histories, and permitted scientists to describe the processes that shaped them. Spectroscopy has produced detailed characterization of chemistry and other phenomena in Earth's and planetary atmospheres, and on solid surfaces of most explored bodies.
