Voyager 1, which left Earth 46 years ago, is now 15 billion miles away. ... 2006, flew past Pluto in 2015 and is expected to enter interstellar space in the 2040s.

NASA’s two Voyager spacecraft, launched in the 1970s, have passed beyond the orbit of Pluto and into interstellar space, making them the most distant man-made objects to exist in the universe.

NASA and Voyager 1 resumed communications and operations after a fault protection system switched the interstellar spacecraft's mode of communication to one using less power.

Voyager 1 had not used the S-band to communicate with Earth since 1981. ... Meanwhile, Voyager 1 used Saturn as a gravitational slingshot to power itself past Pluto.

But with Voyager sitting more than 24 billion kilometres from Earth, further away than Pluto and the most distant human-made object ever made. A trip to the repair shop would be impossible.

Voyager 1 relays messages to NASA’s mission control team after losing contact due to a technical issue. The aging spacecraft is relying on an old radio transmitter.

The Voyager 1 spacecraft is functioning normally again after the aging probe’s dwindling power supply triggered a communications blackout. It’s one of several challenges faced by the ...

NASA’s 46-year-old Voyager 1 spacecraft has experienced a computer glitch that prevents it from returning science data to Earth from the solar system’s outer reaches.
