Before Voyager 1, scientific data on the sun’s gases and material came only from within the heliosphere’s confines, according to Dr. Jamie Rankin, Voyager’s deputy project scientist.

Science Voyager 1 Activated a Radio It Hadn't Used in 40 Years The switch caused NASA to lose contact with the far-flying probe for a few days in October.

Two of the four science instruments aboard the Voyager 1 spacecraft are now returning usable data after months of transmitting only gibberish, NASA scientists have announced.

Voyager spacecrafts go beyond the solar system and garner several intriguing insights about the uncharted territory.

Where ARE Voyager 1 and 2? As NASA detects a 'heartbeat' from humanity's second most distant probe, MailOnline looks at how far the spacecraft and its twin have travelled since 1977 Voyager 2 is ...

NASA engineers have pulled off an incredible feat, switching the agency's ancient Voyager 1 probe to a different set of thrusters.

And Voyager 2—while not yet as far away as Voyager 1—still has operational plans until at least 2026. Don’t forget New Horizons either, whose flyby of Pluto in 2015 fascinated the world.
