Voyager 1: Boldly Going Where None Has Gone
The Voyager 1 spacecraft was launched in 1977 to study the outer planets of our solar
system. It sent back some of the iconic photographs of Jupiter and other outer planets that were
the best views ever seen and certainly much better than any of the views astronomers were able to
get with Earth-based telescopes. However, the mission of the spacecraft turned out to be more
than just looking at planets.
In August of 2012, Voyager 1 became the first man-made object to leave our solar system.
It has escaped the gas bubble from the sun and is moving in the space between stars. It is in
territory that has never been explored.
The Voyager 1 spacecraft is traveling at about 38,000 miles per hour and has a very small
amount of computer memory as part of its equipment. As a comparison, an average smartphone
has 270,000 times more memory than Voyager 1, and the spacecraft doesn’t have a processor like
anything we have today. When Voyager 1 sends messages to the earth, they take about 17 hours
to reach us traveling at the speed of light. Voyager 1 is currently more than 18 billion kilometers
away from the earth.
There is enough power on Voyager 1 to power the craft and send measurements from its
science instruments until 2020. At that point, some instruments will be shut down over the years
until 2025. It is possible that information from the craft could still be received as far out as 2036.
It is no wonder that Voyager 1 has been hailed as “the little spacecraft that could”.
1. How fast is Voyager 1 going?
A. At 270,000 kilometers per hour B. At 17 miles per second
C. At 38,000 miles per hour D. At 18 billion kilometers per hour
2. When did Voyager 1 leave the solar system?
A. In 1977 B. In 2012
C. In 2014 D. It hasn’t left yet.
3. What is the difference between a smartphone and Voyager 1?
A. Smartphones are bigger. B. Voyager 1 has more processing power.
C. Smartphones have much more memory. D. Only Voyager 1 can send messages.
4. What will be shut down in 2020?
A. Voyager 1 B. Some instruments of Voyager 1
C. The mission of Voyager 1 D. All equipment of Voyager 1
5. How can the original mission of Voyager 1 be described?
A. As groundbreaking B. As traditional
C. As imaginary D. As religious
