21 Lutetia

Explore 21 Lutetia and the missions that include it in their destination lists. A target in a mission plan does not mean the spacecraft has arrived.

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. 0 of the 1 record are still active, leaving 1 concluded. A partial success is a distinct recorded outcome, so it is not counted in the numerator, but it stays in the denominator.

These records in the directory

The directory's destination filter is a category taxonomy, and it has no 21 Lutetia key: these records are filed under asteroid alongside every other body of that kind. This page is where the catalog counts 21 Lutetia on its own.

View the 20 missions filed under asteroid

The explorer draws a flight path only where a trajectory dataset is committed, and only where that dataset records an encounter with this body. A record above does carry one, but none of them encounters 21 Lutetia, so the explorer has no 21 Lutetia path to draw and this page offers no link to one.
