Voyager 1 Is Listening to Something No Human Has Ever Heard Before...

#voyager1 #nasa #cosmicexploration Voyager 1 Is Listening to Something No Human Has Ever Heard Before... In September 1977, a spacecraft the size of a small car was launched from Cape Canaveral with a mission plan calling for five years of work and then, effectively, retirement. Fly past Jupiter. Fly past Saturn. Send back photographs. Go dark. Nobody planned for anything more. Nearly half a century later, Voyager 1 is still alive. It is the farthest human-made object in existence — more than 24 billion kilometers from Earth, moving at 61,000 kilometers per hour into the galaxy. It crossed the boundary of our solar system in 2012, an event that required scientists to rewrite their models of where our star's influence ends. And in the years since, it has been detecting something no instrument had ever recorded: a steady, low hum resonating through the plasma between the stars. This is the story of how a limited mission became an infinite one, and what it found along the way.
