The voyager program was a space exploration program created to be the first to travel and explore the outer reaches of our solar system and beyond.
The voyager space probes were launched in 1977 and are still functional to this day, making them the longest running space exploration mission. The purpose of the voyager space probes is to relay information back to earth on the various planets and interplanetary objects they fly by.
Through these missions, NASA has received information regarding:
- Jupiter's cloud formations and storm systems
- Volcanic activity on the Jupiter moon of Io
- Interesting discoveries about the rings of Saturn
- Voyager 2 discovered a huge magnetic field surrounding Uranus
- 10 additional moons seen to orbit Uranus
and much more, making it already an extremely successful mission.
The voyager spacecrafts were designed and built by the United States of America with government funding and contributions from other renowned space agencies.
As of 2021, voyager 1 is moving with a velocity of 61 thousand km per hour , with voyager 2 moving at roughly 55 thousand km per hour putting them beyond the outer reaches of the inner solar system. This along with the many important finds they are responsible for make them worth the 890 million dollars they cost to build.
