After More Than 44 Years of Travelling
Farther from Earth than any man-made objects have before, the Voyager spacecraft are entering their very final phase.
Both of the Voyagers
Were launched from Cape Canaveral in 1977 - with Voyager 2 actually the first to take off
Taking Advantage of a Rare
Alignment (once every 176 years) of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune to shoot into interstellar space.
They Were Designed to Last
Five years and study Jupiter and Saturn but remarkably both spacecraft are still functioning
Despite Escaping Beyond the Hot
Plasma bubble known as the heliopause that defines the beginning of the edge of our solar system.
Both of the Spacecraft Are Powered
By radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs) powered by the heat from decaying spheres of plutonium
Although the Output of These RTGs
Is decreasing by about four watts every year. This means instruments are being turned off one by one.
