I'm a long time Star Trek fan, and my favourite Star Trek series would be "Voyager". It's about a starship that had an original mission of 5 years, but encountered an alien species that had managed to take the ship into the deep reaches of the galaxy. The journey turned from 5 years into a potential 80, and now I understand why the ship is called Voyager

The amazing thing about the Voyager missions is that, unlike in the past when computer technology was in its earliest infancy (They were launched a year after Apollo 11), they can now be monitored and controlled by a few people in a room of a building. We've come a long way - thanks mostly to the Gemini and Apollo programs, but also to the plethora of probes, from before Voyager and onward to the present. The U.S. builds better space equipment than any other country in the world, and we still have a right to be proud of that.

@heydj6857 Год назад

i was 9, i bunked off school to watch both launches, i'm still in awe that they have lasted this long, incredible engineering. these incredible distances, another 300 years just to reach the ort cloud, and 30k years for it to leave that cloud and leave out solar system, just incredible distances which are tiny really in regards to interstellar travel. we are so small and the universe is huge. it's been crazy following all these years, every single day wondering if the craft would be destroyed or fail and here we are all these years later now beginning to reach the very end of the mission. sad that it will end but still,what a journey!

The Voyagers are so impressive with what they've done, how long they've lasted and the amazing amount of information they've been able to relay back to the Earth. NASA has done such spectacular work on this project and on the most minimal budget. We need to celebrate our science more than we do.

@TheNoiseySpectator Год назад

I have another idea. What about building probes _Specfically for_ traveling out of our solar system, and into deep space, then into another solar system? Sure they would take hundreds or thousands of years to get there, and then decades to radio back their discoveries, but so what? There should still be people around, then. 😊☄️🌌

Most commercial products aren’t built to last. They’re built to fail and be replaced so that the company can make more money. It’s called planned obsolescence. But there are some products that are built to last. They’re more expensive up front, but they save you money in the long run. Kinda like buying things in bulk does. Voyager was built to last. Comparing its lengthy functionality to your phone’s planned obsolescence is, well, kinda silly.

The only reason these probes have lasted as long as they have, circa 2024, is because they were not built on the basis of the profit motive. Whereas now, we had 2 private companies sending landers to the one where the first ended before even getting there and the second, Odysseus, landed on its side, blocking its main solar panel such that minimal data was gathered from the lander. And it only managed to land at all because of a secondary system built by NASA, not a private company..... It was later learned that it landed on its side because of cost cutting measures by the private company....haha

The Golden Discs have math problems on them in case they’re ever recovered as math is thought to be a universal language. To think… If humans suddenly vanished, those discs would be the only proof we were real in space. I’m curious if we could get an updated version of Voyager 1 into space with tech similar to that of the newly released James Webb telescope?! Imagine how amazing that would be!
