Scientists say a vast region of unexpectedly high temperatures in Jupiter's upper atmosphere was caused by a massive wave of solar wind.

NASA and Voyager 1 resumed communications and operations after a fault protection system switched the interstellar spacecraft ...

Voyager 2 preceded it into space by 16 days, but Voyager 1 quickly overtook it on a faster trajectory, and arrived at Jupiter 4 months before its sister craft. Voyager 1 took this photo of Jupiter ...

Voyager 1 flew past Jupiter in 1979 and past Saturn and its largest moon, Titan, in 1980. Voyager 2 followed suit, observing Jupiter in 1979 and Saturn in 1981, and then became the first and so ...

Since Voyager 1 blasted off in 1977, it has skirted past the kaleidoscopic clouds of Jupiter and the icy rings of Saturn. The spacecraft is now 124 times farther from the Sun than we are ...

Saying farewell is hard, and in the case of the Voyager 1 & 2 spacecraft doubly so, seeing as how they have been with us for more than 47 years. From the highs of the 1970s and 1980s during their ...

Since Galileo first laid telescope-enhanced eyes on Jupiter, scientists have continued to study the curious world from both the ground and the sky. In 1979, NASA's Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft ...

Voyager 1 discovered a thin ring around Jupiter and several of Saturn’s moons, and Voyager 2 is the only spacecraft to visit Uranus and Neptune. Each spacecraft still has three instruments ...

The space agency powered down an instrument on Voyager 1 designed to study cosmic rays last week, and on Wednesday it confirmed an instrument on Voyager 2 that measures charged particles and ...

In brief: Mission control specialists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory are taking additional energy-conserving measures to ensure their Voyager probes can continue operating in interstellar ...
