While the team is still reviewing the information, everything they’ve seen so far suggests Voyager 1 is healthy and operating properly. “Today was a great day for Voyager 1,” said Linda ...
The Voyager 1 spacecraft is functioning normally again after the aging probe’s dwindling power supply triggered a communications blackout. It’s one of several challenges faced by the ...
As Voyager 1 and its twin probe, Voyager 2, have aged, the mission team has slowly turned off nonessential systems on both spacecraft to conserve power, including heaters.
Voyager 1 overtakes Pioneer 10 as the most distant spacecraft from the Sun, at 69.419 AU. Voyager 1 is moving away from the Sun at over 1 AU per year faster than Pioneer 10. 2004-12-17 Passed the termination shock at 94 AU and entered the heliosheath. 2007-02-02 Terminated plasma subsystem operations. 2007-04-11 Terminated plasma subsystem heater.
Voyager 1 was launched after Voyager 2, but along a shorter and faster trajectory that was designed to provide an optimal flyby of Saturn's moon Titan, [21] which was known to be quite large and to possess a dense atmosphere. This encounter sent Voyager 1 out of the plane of the ecliptic, ending its planetary science mission. [22]
While on WNEM-TV 5 Plus, its news department has an hour-long news at 10 p.m. every day of the week [21] plus a 7 p.m. half-hour on weeknights. [22] WNEM-TV produced news segments for then-sister radio station WNEM (1250 AM); this ended after Meredith donated the station to Ave Maria Communications, which adopted a Catholic radio format.
