The Pioneer 10 and Pioneer 11 probes (early 1970s) were carried out a flyby of Jupiter and in doing so contributed only a small amount to what was known about Callisto from Earth-based observations. The Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 flybys in 1979 provided detailed images of Callisto's surface and also measured its temperature, mass and shape. The Galileo spacecraft made several close passes over the moon, with one 2001 going down as close as 138 km from Callisto's surface. In 2001, the Cassini spacecraft, on its way to Saturn, took some infra-red images of Callisto. Most recently, the New Horizons probe, on its way to Pluto collected images of Callisto.
