kudos to whoever guesses what it is

New Horizons? The probe looks quite similar but what I'm assuming was the upper stage doesn't look a lot like the Centaur. Might just be the angle and the fact that when you took the picture (Jool) the stage is still attached.

This is what it actually looked, for comparison (New Horizons at the left, MSL at the right):

Nope, although it does look like one.

A hint: it's in a polar Sun orbit, using Jool for plane change.

And the stage attached is IUS.
