A creative fix by NASA engineers has restored a steady stream of valuable science data from Voyager 1 as it studies interstellar space billions of miles from Earth. ... June 18, 2024 at 6:04 PM ...
The crew of Soyuz 11 died after undocking from space station Salyut 1 after a three-week stay. A cabin vent valve construction defect caused it to open at service module separation. The recovery team found the crew dead. These three are, as of 2025, the only human fatalities in space (above 100 kilometers (330,000 ft)). [4] [5]
The lander-ascender-rover combination was separated from the orbiter and returner before landing on 1 June 2024 at 22:23 UTC. It landed on the Moon's surface on 1 June 2024. [ 41 ] [ 42 ] The ascender was launched back to lunar orbit on 3 June 2024 at 23:38 UTC, carrying samples collected by the lander, and completed rendezvous and docking with ...
A “poke” sent to the Voyager 1 probe received a response that could help NASA restore reliable communication with the aging spacecraft 15 billion miles away.
Voyager 1 and its twin send back science data continuously through the Deep Space Network, a system of radio antennae on Earth, with about six to eight hours of the probes’ detections returning ...
This was the tenth flight for SpaceX under NASA's CRS Phase 2 and first Dragon 2 launch from SLC-40, as the pad was reconfigured and a new Crew Access Tower and Arm was added. CURTIS, KASHIWA, and MicroOrbiter-1 were deployed into orbit from ISS on 11 April 2024. [ 115 ]
NASA's Voyager 1, the most distant spacecraft from Earth, is sending science data again. Voyager 1's four instruments are back in business after a computer problem in November, the Jet Propulsion ...
In June 2012, Scientists at NASA reported that Voyager 1 was very close to entering interstellar space, indicated by a sharp rise in high-energy particles from outside the Solar System. [28] [29] In September 2013, NASA announced that Voyager 1 had crossed the heliopause on 25 August 2012, making it the first spacecraft to enter interstellar space.
