Voyager 1 is transmitting data from the edge of interstellar space. See what this historic probe is finding in the deep void.
Nearly 50 years after launch, Voyager 1 remains the most distant human-made object in existence. This video examines the unusual phenomena currently being detected by its instruments as it travels beyond the influence of our sun. We break down the complex environment of the heliosphere and provide a clear perspective on our place in the universe.
Using visualizations of the Virgo Supercluster and distant galaxies, we map out the immense distances involved in space exploration. By comparing the size of our solar system to an ant crawling on a globe, you will gain a concrete understanding of cosmic scale and the vastness Voyager 1 is navigating. This guide is for anyone interested in the technical reality of our farthest reaching mission.
