        Ulysses is a European probe, to  be  launched  from  the  Shuttle,
    which will go over one the Sun's poles ...
        Originally there was to have been an American  probe  launched  at
    the same time to go over the other solar pole. Funding was cut a few
    years ago, making the Europeans rather mad as I recall.

  How can it go over one pole but not both?
