Dawn is a spacecraft made by JPL. I'ts mission is to explore the two biggest object is the asteroid belt: the asteroid Vesta and the dwarf planet Ceres. First Vesta will be visited in 2011 till 2012 and Ceres in 2015 Non of the two bodies have been visited before. It is launched on 27 September 2007 and it made it's first flyby on 17 February 2009, at Mars. The spacecraft used Mars' gravity to 'slingshot' himself into deeper space.

- Dawn is a space probe launched by NASA in September 2007 with the mission of studying two of the three known protoplanets of the asteroid belt, Vesta and Ceres. It is currently in orbit about its second target, the dwarf planet Ceres. Dawn is the first spacecraft to orbit two extraterrestrial bodies, the first spacecraft to visit either Vesta or Ceres, and also the first to visit a dwarf planet, arriving at Ceres in March 2015, a few months before New Horizons flew by Pluto in July 2015.
