On September 5, 1977, NASA launched the Voyager 1 probe into space with the aim of studying the outer planets. Voyager 1 launched a couple of weeks after Voyager 2, and both probes have flown to the ...

In brief: NASA has developed a pair of fixes designed to ensure its Voyager probes continue operating in interstellar space for as long as possible. One issue the team targeted involves the thrusters ...

The 46-year-old probe, which flew by Jupiter and Saturn in its youth and inspired earthlings with images of the planet as a “Pale Blue Dot,” hasn’t sent usable data from interstellar space in months.
