Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 are both exploring uncharted territory in interstellar space. Engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, sent a command for Voyager 1 to power ...

The Voyager 2 mission, which provided humanity's first and only close-up view of Uranus, revealed a planet with unexpectedly intense radiation belts and an apparently plasma-depleted magnetosphere.

As of this writing, the DTR in Voyager 2 is still working, but is likely to be shut down as the power wanes in that vehicle. Soon we’ll lose contact with both of these platforms for good ...

Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, can continue exploring space beyond the limits of the solar system. To save energy for further interstellar exploration, mission engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion ...

When the low-energy charged particle instrument aboard Voyager 2 is shut down on March 24th, both spacecraft will have three out of the ten identical science instruments they launched with ...

Voyager 1 and 2 continue to make history every day, as they transmit data back to Earth while traveling further into deep space. But there will come a time when amassing distance is all they are ...

are shutting off one scientific instrument on Voyager 1 and another on Voyager 2. The move will buy both spacecraft a bit of extra time on their journeys through the cosmos. The first of the ...

This has been the case with NASA's twin spacecraft, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. In order to save power so that both objects can continue to explore space, experts have shut down the cosmic ray ...

Voyager 2 is over 13 billion miles (21 billion kilometers) from Earth. In fact, due to this distance, it takes over 23 hours to get a radio signal from Earth to Voyager 1, and 19½ hours to Voyager 2.

Nasa plans to shut down another instrument on Voyager 2 to conserve power, following a similar action on Voyager 1. This step aims to extend the life of the nearly 47-year-old spacecraft ...
