As Voyager 2 crosses into the mysterious boundary of interstellar space, it has encountered something scientists are calling ...

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

Voyager 2’s nuclear power source should hold out until 2025 or so—likely long enough to sample interstellar space—but precisely when that data will come in is anyone’s guess.

Voyager 2 and its twin, Voyager 1, launched a few weeks apart in 1977 to perform an unprecedented "grand tour" of the solar system's giant planets — Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

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.

Voyager 2 has begun using a small backup power reserve that was part of a safety mechanism, which will enable the spacecraft to keep from shutting down another science instrument until 2026, ...

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 was only expected to last for five years, but it’s still operating 42 years after launch. Yet Saturday, January 25, the probe did experience a bit of a hiccup 11 billion miles from ...

NASA says its Voyager 2 probe has become the second human-made object to fly into interstellar space — six years after its twin spacecraft, Voyager 1, became the first.

Voyager 2 — which was off kilter by 2% — had finally been reached when NASA’s Deep Space Network facility in Canberra, Australia, successfully sent a “shout” signal equivalent beyond 12. ...

NASA announced the arrival of Voyager 2 in interstellar space on Dec. 10, 2018. Voyager 1 reached the milestone in 2012. (Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech) ...
