Answer to Question 1

Using gravitational assists, Voyager 2 was able to visit all four jovian planets, making many discoveries along the way. In effect, one spacecraft performed the equivalent of four missions.

Answer to Question 2

These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
