We bring you an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at this iconic mission with Dr Linda Spilker, from her first job out of ...

NASA figured it out what was going on with Voyager 1 and why it was sending weird messages to Earth. Now, it will operate smoothly for years to come.

Voyager 1, Earth’s farthest spacecraft, has been on an extraordinary journey for over 45 years, exploring uncharted territories of space and sending back incredible data from beyond our solar system.

When NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft sailed past Jupiter in 1979, it recorded a stunning and unusual phenomenon—plasma waves as ...

The solar wind plasma goes from moving at about 400 kilometers per second (900,000 miles per hour) to being diverted and ...

Given Voyager 1's immense distance from Earth, it takes a radio signal about 22.5 hours to reach the probe, and another 22.5 hours for a response signal from the spacecraft to reach Earth.

On Dec. 12, 2023, NASA shared some worrisome news about Voyager 1, the first probe to walk away from our solar system 's gravitational party and enter the isolation of interstellar space.

Unfortunately, what the Voyager 1 team learned through this secondary communication method was a bit concerning. For some reason, the command sent to Voyager 1 triggered its fault protection system.

The Voyager 1 probe, the first human-made object to reach the space between stars, has suffered a serious problem that NASA experts are struggling to understand and repair.

Voyager 2 is only about 12.3 billion miles away from Earth today. It should take the Voyager 1 probe approximately 40,000 years to reach AC+79 3888, a star in the constellation Camelopardalis ...

Nearly a decade after NASA’s Voyager 1 crossed into interstellar space, the robotic spacecraft has detected the faint, but persistent vibrating hum of interstellar gas, says a Cornell University ...
