As of 2018, New Horizons is traveling at about 14 km/s (8.7 mi/s), 3 km/s (1.9 mi/s) slower than Voyager 1, and New Horizons, being closer to the sun, is slowing more rapidly. [117] Voyager 1 is expected to reach the theorized Oort cloud in about 300 years [118] [119] and take about 30,000 years to pass through it.
Voyager 1 was launched after Voyager 2, but along a shorter and faster trajectory that was designed to provide an optimal flyby of Saturn's moon Titan, [21] which was known to be quite large and to possess a dense atmosphere. This encounter sent Voyager 1 out of the plane of the ecliptic, ending its planetary science mission. [22]
Area code 209 was created in an area code split of area code 415 on October 26, 1957. On November 14, 1998, the southern half of this numbering plan area received the assignment of area code 559. On October 24, 2021, 209 was transitioned to 1+10-digit dialing despite not being part of an overlay complex at that time.
mnemonic: 1867 was the year of Canada's confederation (formation; long-distance calls to the 867 area code must begin 1-867) 868: Trinidad and Tobago (all) June 1, 1997: split of 809; mnemonic: TNT; 869: Saint Kitts and Nevis (all) October 1, 1996: split of 809; 870: Arkansas (Texarkana, Jonesboro, Pine Bluff, and southern, eastern, and ...
Building on the Voyager program's success, JPL continues to push the boundaries of deep-space exploration. The Interstellar Probe concept, though not yet formalized, proposes to send a spacecraft ten times the distance from the Sun as Pluto, to explore the interstellar medium and the outermost reaches of our solar system.
Cosmic Ray Subsystem (CRS, or Cosmic Ray System) [1] is an instrument aboard the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 spacecraft of the NASA Voyager program, and it is an experiment to detect cosmic rays. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The CRS includes a High-Energy Telescope System (HETS), Low-Energy Telescope System (LETS), and The Electron Telescope (TET). [ 4 ]
Trudeau’s latest crisis has been sparked by the sudden resignation of his finance minister Chrystia Freeland, amid a dispute over how best to handle U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s ...
Snelling's zip code is 95369 and its area code is 209. Snelling was the county seat of Merced County from 1857 to 1872. The courthouse constructed in 1857 continued to serve as a justice court until the 1990s. The two-story building remains standing today and is a rare surviving example of a simple early California courthouse. [6]
