Looking Beyond Voyager 1 And 2
NASA has explored the space beyond Earth and our solar system with spacecraft like Voyagers 1 and 2, and how we’ve discovered ...
After 47 years and 15 billion miles, the Plasma Science Experiment aboard NASA’s Voyager 2 spacecraft has been turned off. NASA’s twin Voyager spacecraft were originally designed for a four-year ...
NASA’s Deep Space Network sent the command to Voyager 2, which took 19 hours to reach the spacecraft. The confirmation signal ...
NASA’s Deep Space Network sent the command to Voyager 2, which took 19 hours to reach the spacecraft. The confirmation signal traveled back to Earth in another 19 hours. Engineers work on NASA ...
NASA lost contact with the interstellar Voyager 1 spacecraft for nearly a week after a technical glitch shut off the probe's main transmitter. Using Voyager's weaker backup transmitter, engineers are ...
NASA engineers are now working to diagnose the issue that triggered Voyager 1's fault protection system and to restore it to normal operations. Brandon is the space/physics editor at Live Science.
The Plasma Spectrometer (PLS) has been the eyes and ears of Voyager 2, measuring the charged particles that shape our solar system and beyond. As it ventures deep into interstellar space, NASA turned ...
NASA has stated that although the S-band consumes less power, Voyager 1 has not communicated with Earth using this method since 1981.
A command to activate a heater triggered its fault protection system, causing the communication issue. Voyager-1 has been operational for over 47 years in interstellar space.
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Southern California oversees communications with Voyager 1 through ... delay–where to watch live stream Voyagers 1 and 2 have operated for over 47 ...
