It's good to be home (but I miss Jordan already)!

Adapted from source linked in toot: the first image of the Earth-Moon system in a single photographic frame taken by Voyager 1 as it departed on its journey to explore Jupiter and Saturn.

Both the earth and moon are seen with their right halves illuminated. The earth is in the center and the moon is slightly above and to the left of the earth.

Are you planning for Voyager 1's Light Day celebration???

Sometime in mid-Nov 2026, the Voyager 1 spacecraft will reach 24h of light time travel to/from Earth!

(if my fiddling with NASA's "Your Solar System" tool is correct, a light day is roughly 25.9 billion km)

I know it's an arbitrary thing, but that we've managed to send a spacecraft a full light day away from Earth and it's still functioning!

Anyone? C'mon! This is way cool :)

🗓️ Efeméride: 11 de abril de 1979.

🚀 La sonda Voyager 1 realiza su primera aproximación cercana a Júpiter, enviando imágenes inéditas y datos clave sobre el planeta y sus lunas. Un hito en la exploración del sistema solar.

Hopefully Voyager 1 can survive until later. In this 2025, Voyager 1 has been at a distance of 25.0 billion kilometers from Earth and will continue to fly away until later even when contact with Earth is lost in about 2036. It is the most distant human-made object from Earth.

NASA’s Voyager 1 is still alive—just barely. Running on dwindling power after 47 years in space, it’s proof that human engineering can outlast generations. Who else thinks this mission deserves its own movie? 🚀🎬 #Voyager1 #SpaceHistory https://www.independent.co.uk/space/nasa-space-twin-voyager-power-b2710017.html

#NASA Turns Off Two Voyager Science Instruments To Extend Mission
#Voyager1's cosmic ray subsystem – a suite of three telescopes designed to study cosmic rays, including protons from the galaxy and the Sun, by measuring their energy and flux – was shut down last week. #Voyager2's low-energy charged particle instrument is due for deactivation later this month.

Technology built by government bureaucracy on a budget. Continues to defy expectations nearly five decades on. musk & trump will never make America great again. They have no idea what it takes.

This isn't a call to return to the 60s or 70s or anytime in the past — but you don't make progress by denying science; destroying progress; instilling fear; by cruel, vengeful, stupid leadership.

📆 Marzo de 2025
🔋 Apagados dos instrumentos en las sondas
La NASA ordenó el pasado 25 de febrero apagar el instrumento CRS (Cosmic Ray Subsystem) de la sonda Voyager 1. Y para el próximo 24 de marzo está previsto que la sonda Voyager 2 apague el instrumento LECP (Low-Energy Charged Particles). El objetivo de estas desconexiones es ahorrar unos vatios energía y permitir que ambas naves puedan seguir funcionando con un instrumento al menos hasta el año 2030/2031. De momento ambas naves mantienen tres instrumentos operativos.
