The NASA website shows how far the space probes Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 have travelled from Earth since their launch ... The Voyagers carry a message for any alien civilisation that might recover them ...

Scientists will have observations from one less instrument on each spacecraft moving forward, however, NASA officials announced on March 5. Mission managers turned off Voyager 1’s cosmic ray ...

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 ...

March 5 (UPI) --Engineers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory have conserved energy supplies on the record-setting Voyager 1 & 2 deep space probes nearly 50 years after their missions launched to ...

For nearly 50 years, NASA’s twin Voyager spacecraft have just kept swimming – or zooming through space, collecting data from interstellar space farther than any other mission. NASA is trying to keep ...

In 1977, NASA's Voyager 1 and 2 probes were sent into space with 27 pieces of music, referred to as the “Golden Records”. They were records designed to showcase mankind’s greatest achievements. But ...

In 1977, NASA's Voyager 1 and 2 probes were sent into space with 27 pieces of music, referred to as the “Golden Records”. They were records designed to showcase mankind’s greatest achievements.

However, NASA isn’t ready to say goodbye just yet, and is taking measures to get as much life out of the pair as possible. On March 5, Voyager mission engineers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory ...

Voyager 1 is over 15 billion miles (25 billion km) from Earth and Voyager 2 is 13 billion miles (21 billion km) away. That's so far that it can take almost two days for a radio signal to make the ...
