Voyager
The Voyager message is carried by a phonograph record, a 12-inch gold-plated copper disk containing sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life and culture on Earth. Launched in 1977, both Voyager spacecraft began a historic journey and each carried a unique 'time capsule' along with them.
Voyager Golden Record
Background. The Voyager 1 probe is currently the farthest human-made object from Earth.Both Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 have reached interstellar space, the region between stars where the galactic plasma is present. Like their predecessors Pioneer 10 and 11, which featured a simple plaque, both Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 were launched by NASA with a message aboard—a kind of time capsule, intended ...
Contents of the Voyager Golden Record
The Voyager Golden Record contains 116 images and a variety of sounds. The items for the record, which is carried on both the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 spacecraft, were selected for NASA by a committee chaired by Carl Sagan of Cornell University.Included are natural sounds (including some made by animals), musical selections from different cultures and eras, spoken greetings in 59 languages ...
Voyager program
The Voyager spacecraft are expected to be able to operate science instruments through 2020, when limited power will require instruments to be deactivated one by one. ... The record is intended as a combination time capsule and an interstellar message to any civilization, alien or far-future human, that may recover either of the Voyagers.
What Is on Voyager's Golden Record?
The "Golden Record" would be an upgrade to Pioneer's plaques. Mounted on Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, twin probes launched in 1977, the two copies of the record would serve as time capsules and ...

Voyager 1 spacecraft has sent a (partly) decipherable message
Now NASA engineers says they've been able to decipher a new message that Voyager 1 sent in March. Image via Caltech/ NASA-JPL. NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft launched from Earth in 1977. It ...
NASA Communicates with Ailing Voyager 1 Spacecraft
First, it takes a long time to communicate with Voyager 1. Traveling at the speed of light, the radio signals used to command the spacecraft take 22.5 hours to travel 15 billion miles—and 22.5 ...
How do the Voyager spacecraft transmit radio signals so far
Voyager 1 is currently over 7 billion miles (about 11 billion kilometers) away from Earth and is still transmitting -- it takes about 10 hours for the signal to travel from the spacecraft to Earth! The Voyager spacecraft use 23-watt radios. This is higher than the 3 watts a typical cell phone uses, but in the grand scheme of things it is still ...
When will we get the final message from NASA's Voyager spacecraft?
Both Voyager craft carry "a kind of time capsule, intended to communicate a story of our world to extraterrestrials," the space agency explained. "The Voyager message is carried by a phonograph ...

NASA's Voyager 1 sends readable message to Earth after 4 nail-biting
On March 1, as part of efforts to find a solution to Voyager 1's computer issues, NASA sent a command to the FDS on the spacecraft, instructing it to use different sequences in its software ...
We finally know why NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft stopped communicating
In November 2023, the first spacecraft to journey to interstellar space, Voyager 1, started spouting gibberish. Now, NASA knows why. The team is working on a fix.
Voyager
This is a real-time indicator of Voyager 1's distance from Earth in astronomical units (AU) and either miles (mi) or kilometers (km). Note: Because Earth moves around the sun faster than Voyager 1 is speeding away from the inner solar system, the distance between Earth and the spacecraft actually decreases at certain times of year.
NASA's 'shout' restores communication with Voyager 2
NASA sent a radio signal to Voyager 2, located billions of miles away in interstellar space, and restored communications with the spacecraft after an errant command caused a blackout.
NASA engineers discover why Voyager 1 is sending a stream of gibberish
Launched in 1977, Voyager 1 zipped past Saturn and Jupiter in 1979 and 1980 before flying out into interstellar space in 2012. It is now recording the conditions outside of the sun's protective ...
NASA is trying to fix Voyager 1, but the old spacecraft's days are
Ever since mid-November, the Voyager 1 spacecraft has been sending messages back to Earth that don't make any sense. It's as if the aging spacecraft has suffered some kind of stroke that's ...
NASA Concerned as Voyager 1 Sending Back Incomprehensible Code
NASA's two Voyager spacecraft have spent almost half a century traveling through distant space. Voyager 1, in particular, which is currently floating past the generally-defined edge of the solar ...
Voyager 1 sends back surprising response after 'poke' from NASA
CNN —. Engineers have sent a "poke" to the Voyager 1 probe and received a potentially encouraging response as they hope to fix a communication issue with the aging spacecraft that has ...
Engineers Pinpoint Cause of Voyager 1 Issue, Are Working on Solution
Engineers have confirmed that a small portion of corrupted memory in one of the computers aboard NASA's Voyager 1 has been causing the spacecraft to send unreadable science and engineering data to Earth since last November. Called the flight data subsystem (FDS), the computer is responsible for packaging the probe's science and engineering ...
