It's been almost 40 years since Voyager 2 flew past Uranus, but its readings from that whistlestop flyby have remained some ...

NASA has explored the space beyond Earth and our solar system with spacecraft like Voyagers 1 and 2, and how we’ve discovered thousands of exoplanets with space telescopes like Kepler and TESS. Credit ...

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, which is nearly 46 years into its mission, is roughly 12.4 billion miles from Earth. In 2018, the spacecraft left the heliosphere, ...

Researchers from the University of Houston, led by Dr. Xinyue Wang, launched a deep probe of Uranus’ data — and determined ...

Voyager 2’s data showed that Uranus’ magnetosphere was home to unexpectedly powerful electron radiation belts. Their intensity was similar to the massive bands of radiation found around Jupiter.

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. ...

Voyager 2 will be unable to send data back to Earth or receive commands until the antenna is successfully pointed back toward Earth. Voyager 2 and Voyager 1 were launched in 1977.

Originally launched in 1977, Voyager 2 has been making its way through space for over 40 years now. Of course, all that time in space means that, eventually, the probe’s power supply will give out.
