Columbia’s TSS-1R experiment deployed 19.7 kilometres of tether before electrical arcing caused a break. The lost satellite still left useful data about electricity generation in orbit.

🚀 A remarkable discovery at the edge of our Solar System: NASA’s Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 traveled along very different paths, yet both crossed the heliopause—the boundary where the Sun’s influence gi...

The Big Bang swap freed almost 10 watts while preserving Voyager 2's thermal balance, keeping its three remaining interstellar instruments on for at least another year.

A Georgian polyphonic song travels farther from Earth than any human creation, carrying a nation's voice into the cosmos—and its journey raises ancient questions about what humanity chooses to remembe...

Nearly fifty years at hypersonic speed, yet still trapped in Earth's cosmic backyard—a humbling lesson in the true scale of the universe.

Nearly five decades after launch, humanity's most distant messenger still whispers secrets from the edge of the solar system—powered by equipment that should have died decades ago.

NASA's deorbit vehicle will turn the ISS from a continuously inhabited place back into an object, then guide its controlled breakup over the remote South Pacific.

A clever swap has extended the historic Voyager 2’s mission in interstellar space. Engineers are hoping to do the same for Voyager 1.

Engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory have successfully freed up additional power on Voyager 2 🛰 The operation, nicknamed the "Big Bang," involved simultaneously turning off certain power-con...

A machine built when the Beatles had just broken up still explores the cosmos—and NASA engineers still debug it the old-fashioned way.

A spacecraft built to die in 1982 is still calling home from the edge of the universe, defying every prediction about machine mortality and human patience.

A spacecraft billions of miles away captured Earth's final portrait before its cameras went dark forever, leaving scientists to wonder what lay just beyond that last frame.

Yet with less computing power than a 1980s video game, Voyager 1 continues sending back revolutionary discoveries from the edge of the solar system.

On 28 November 2017, engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory sent Voyager 1 a command to fire four thrusters that had been silent since November 1980.

🚀🌌 Voyager 1 has left the Sun's protective bubble—the heliosphere—and is now traveling through interstellar space, over 25 billion km from Earth. Launched in 1977, it's the most distant human-made ob...

The two Voyagers left the Sun's bubble six years apart, in different directions and at opposite ends of the solar cycle, yet found its edge at nearly the same distance. Scientists are not sure why.

In November 2026, Voyager 1 will cross a boundary that is not marked by dust, plasma, gravity or any visible edge. It will become a spacecraft one full

In late 2023, one of the most distant machines humanity has ever built started talking nonsense. Voyager 1, more than 24 billion kilometres from Earth, began sending back a meaningless, repeating patt...

Voyager 1 is the fastest and most distant object people have ever built. It left Earth in 1977 and, almost half a century later, it is still moving at about 17 kilometres every second, far quicker tha...
