The Voyager 1 & 2 were twin probes launched by the US. Their mission was to Jupiter and Saturn. They both did, but then Voyager 2 went on to Uranus and Neptune. Voyager 1 passed Uranus and Neptune, but never got close enough to photograpd them. Soon after it became the first spacecraft to experience heliopause.
