And half of the 50 years, NASA Voyager 1 has spent billions of miles traveling into interstellar space. In October, it went ...

NASA has reestablished touch with Voyager 1, the most distant thing built by our species, now hurtling through interstellar space far beyond the orbit of Pluto.

NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL) said Voyager 1 had not been sending readable data back to Earth since Nov. 14, 2023, despite the spacecraft still receiving mission controller commands.

NASA revived Voyager 1 backup thrusters after two decades, ensuring mission safety as Earth’s key antenna undergoes upgrades. This bold fix extends the spacecraft’s journey through deep space.

Contact restored. That was the message relieved NASA officials shared after the agency regained full contact with the Voyager 1 space probe, the most distant human-made object in the universe ...

Communication between NASA and Voyager 1 has been spotty at times. In fact, the spacecraft stopped sending readable data to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California on Nov. 14 ...

In the latest shutdown, the cosmic ray subsystem experiment on Voyager 1 and Voyager 2’s low-energy charged particle ...

NASA can’t catch a break when it comes to Voyager 1, apparently. That’s because the US space agency has now revealed that the only thing keeping Voyager 1 communications running at the moment ...
