NASA’s twin Voyager spacecraft, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, embarked on a historic journey to explore the outer planets of our ...

Voyager 2 was launched in August 1977, 16 days before Voyager 1, which explored Jupiter, Saturn and Saturn's large moon Titan before heading out into the depths of the solar system.

The Voyager mission team at NASA has been able to detect a signal from Voyager 2 after losing contact with the spacecraft, which has been operating for nearly 46 years. “We enlisted the help of ...

Voyager 2’s priceless data is captured and returned to Earth through its five science instruments, while Voyager 1 still has four operational instruments after one failed earlier in the mission.

(Voyager 2’s twin, Voyager 1, is able to communicate with the other two stations.) A round-trip communication with Voyager 2 takes about 35 hours — 17 hours and 35 minutes each way.

NASA Reaches Voyager 2 With a Last-Ditch ‘Shout’ Across the Void After an erroneous command sent the spacecraft’s antenna askew, mission specialists hatched a plan to point it back toward Earth.

NASA has turned off one of Voyager 2's science instruments as power conservation becomes crucial for the interstellar exploring spacecraft located 12.8 billion miles from home.

Originally launched in 1977, Voyager 2 has been making its way through space for over 40 years now. Of course, all that time in space means that, eventually, the probe’s power supply will give out.

The milestone makes the 41-year-old NASA probe just the second human-made object, after Voyager 1, to reach such distant regions. Now, Voyager 2 is over 11 billion miles from the sun — and counting.

Voyager 2 is only the second spacecraft to travel this far out into the solar system. At a distance of about 11 billion miles from Earth, Voyager 2 is well beyond the orbit of Pluto.
