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.
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 ...
NASA's twin Voyager probes are coming up on half a century in action, and as a result, their power supplies are dwindling. To help them conserve energy, mission operators at the agency's Jet ...
The twin Voyager probes launched in 1977 to take advantage of a once-in-176-year alignment of the outer planets. That task wrapped up within a little more than a decade, but still the spacecraft ...
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 ...
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 ...
The Health and Human Services Department is weighing an immediate freeze of $27.5 million in grants, an agency spokesman said after The Wall Street Journal reported the plans.
For Golden Dome, Voyager also plans to offer edge computing systems that it is developing in partnership with defense contractor Palantir. Commercial firms in the space industry eyeing defense ...
The space agency powered down an instrument on Voyager 1 designed to study cosmic rays last week, and on Wednesday it confirmed an instrument on Voyager 2 that measures charged particles and ...
