Voyager: The Spacecraft That Transformed Our Understanding of the Solar System
The spacecraft that completely transformed our perspective of the solar system. Initially designed to operate for only five years, two spacecraft are now journeying through the distant reaches of space within our solar system. NASA’s probes, built for the Voyager mission, have become the farthest human-made objects ever sent into space.
Dr. Linda Spilker, a scientist involved in the project, explained how these probes have altered our understanding and outlook of the solar system. It is anticipated that in the future, ‘aliens’ or extraterrestrial beings might discover these probes and potentially visit Earth.
