NASA has explored the space beyond Earth and our solar system with spacecraft like Voyagers 1 and 2, and how we’ve discovered ...
New insights from Voyager 2 suggest Uranus' moon Miranda may have housed a deep ocean, shaping its unique features.
Miranda eventually fell out of sync with one of the other Uranian moons, nullifying the mechanism keeping its interior warm. Researchers don't think Miranda has fully frozen over yet though, as it ...
NASA’s Voyager mission launched in the 1970s. Today, it’s making history as it conducts new science. But how are two ...
The Voyager 1 spacecraft went quiet in interstellar space. Then NASA it communicating on a radio transmitter it hadn't used ...
NASA's farthest spacecraft, Voyager 1, is running low on power but carries on its journey through interstellar space. Credit: NASA / JPL-Caltech illustration At 15.4 billion miles away from Earth ...
The 47-year-old NASA Voyager 1 fell back on a radio transmitter it hadn’t used since 1981 to ping home base after a technical ...
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 ...
One thing is for sure, though: Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 are both slowly dying, instrument by instrument, and each new issue that crops up has every potential to be their last. Josh Hawkins has been ...
Voyager 2, as well as other spacecraft exploring our solar system. Voyager 1 then sends back engineering data to show how it is responding to the commands. It takes about 23 hours for a message to ...
