Look at issues of Sky and Telescope around the encounter date. They ran
pretty good encounter info for each of the Pioneer and Voyager flybys.
Official press kits were alright, but sometimes were not updated with
changes. Star and Sky had some good articles at the time, also.
Astronomy magazine at the time was not as detailed in its coverage.
