NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft is conducting normal science operations for the first time following a technical issue that arose in November 2023.
The most distant spacecraft from Earth stopped sending back understandable data last November. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory declared success after receiving good engineering updates late last week.
NASA engineers are working to correct a new fault in one of the computers aboard the Voyager 1 deep space probe that is preventing the 46-year-old spacecraft from transmitting any scientific or engineering data back to Mission Control on Earth.
A team of US. scientists found huge ripples at the edge of the Solar System, on the scale of tens of astronomical units.
Nearly 45 years into its space journey, the NASA Voyager 1 probe is sending back mysterious data that has left the spacecraft’s engineers confused.
Scientists have found that the pressure at the edge of the solar system is greater than expected after analyzing data collected by NASA's Voyager spacecraft—the only objects to have traveled to interstellar space.
“Time after time, we discovered things that we hadn’t even imagined.”
Feb. 2015 update - distance to sun - Voyager 1: 131 AU, Voyager 2: 108 AU.
