The 1960s and 1970s were periods of ambitious space exploration for the Soviet Union and the United States. Launch vehicles, derived from intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), became increasingly capable and spacecraft technology became evermore sophisticated. Venus and Mars, the two closest planets to earth, were visited by spacecraft several times in that period. The U.S. also sent a spacecraft to fly by Mercury. Exploration of the planets continued by spacecraft from the 1980s to the present time. Japan and the European Space Agency have joined the US and Russia in placing capable spacecraft in orbit around Venus.
