How far can Voyager 1 go before we lose contact?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 май 2024
- The Voyager space probes are the furthest man made objects from Earth. With Voyager 1 being 21 Billion Kilometres from Earth, communication with the Space probe relies on the Deep Space Network. But how far can Voyager 1 go before we lose communication? This video looks at how we communicate with Voyager and when it will eventually stop receiving our signals.

When the most distant man made object responds faster than your friends when you send them a message
Damn
Nobody responds anymore in real life nor internet communications, prolly not even you
Then you might need some new friends
These friends fake tho :/
Sup bro, sorry I just got your message.
*Plot twist:* Voyager 1 will come back to earth with a note saying:
*"your technology sucks"*
i can picture it now
The year is 2100. Everyone has forgotten about the Voyagers, except a few of the older NASA members. One day, Voyager 1 returns, with a note reading: *I lived, bitch*
Edit: I posted this almost a year ago and holy shit it blew up, glad y'all found my humor funny
But wait, so English Language is literally a UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE, whoever put those notes, "Your Technology Sucks" and "I Lived, Bitch" might have been studying Foreign Language. I salute those alien speaking english HAHAHAHAHA

I had worked at Goddard Space Flight Center GSFC, with the EE's from the DSN form 1971 - 1985. What is truly beyond amazing is that in the 45 years of travel we have only been able to communicate with VG1 because we have been continual improving our receivers to pick up a weaker and weaker signal. In other words 45 years ago, it would have been impossible to communicate with the VG1 at a distance of 11 billion miles.
There is no communication in space. On earth is possible because of air which vibrates. In space also no electrics or electronics work, because of radiation very low temperature, high energy particles.
@@cristeaadrian7419 Take your pills flatearther !
@@cristeaadrian7419 Well not quite true my young Padawan. RF communications is NOT vibrating air molecules. RF communications is carried out thru space by passing of electrically charged dust particles. How do you think we have received all those pictures from the Voyager spacecraft and please do not give me all those ' NASA Lied ' conspiracy theories. That would be an insult to my 40 year EE career and make you look like a fool.
interesting thanks
@cristeaadrian7419 So how do you think NASA communicates with the remote vehicles in Mars? How does Russia communicate with its remote vehicles on other planets? How did USA communicate with astronauts on the moon during the apollo missions? NASA has large antennas through which radio waves signals are sent. That's exactly how they communicate with space.

Honestly made me sad and almost tear up that even tho it's not a living being. I fell like Voyager feels lonely and that not hearing from it anymore is like losing a friend after many years of knowing one another ;-;.
Voyager 1 is, after all, the result of the dreams, hopes, ambitions and hard work of hundreds of people for years on this planet (Not to mention everyone from our collective history who figured out physics, chemistry and more to get them there). In some way, it is a part of us that we'll tragically lose forever in just a few years. Tears are justified.

A brilliant documentary. What caught my attention was - "It doesn't really matter how strong the signal is, as long as you have a receiver that is sensitive enough to pick it up."
The two probes left, I believe 16 days apart, with voyager 2 leaving first then voyager 1. The names were given as they believed voyager 1 would reach Jupiter and short after reach Saturn first. Keep in mind the were only built to last 5 years. After doing their missions they kept on going and eventually their missions were changed to explore the unknown. Voyager 1 entered the interstellar space and a bit later voyager 2 did as well. Hopefully they send in their last pictures before they die and disappear for good into the far beyond where no man has gone before.
Voyager took its last pictures 33 years ago. The camera systems were then turned off. There is no longer enough power to use them. None of the remaining experiments produce images.

We need more projects like voyager, we should be launching at least one a year. Bigger power and better technology. There is still so much to learn about our universe.
Agreed! So many advancements in technology since the initial launches. Would love to see what else we can find!
Not really..they will only tell us what we already know so why spend so much money and resources to launch them
@@lilrr1431we have way better hardware now, we can do more sensitive detector for example or, with a more advanced battery we could put a camera that is on 24/7 , I’m sure there is so many things we can do with the miniaturization of basically everything since voyager’s launch
they can't make more projects like voyager because the way the planets aligned back then

It was already taken. It is called, "The Family Portrait."
Don't think it even has enough power to take one photo and send it tbh. I could be wrong about that but it's risky as if they sent one it could mean no more science experiments for the next 8 years.
@@indridcold8433 really?
@@rav_inder5501 It was taken 14 February 1990 before Voyager 1 left the Solar system and turning off the onboard camera. The portrait is a mosaic of many photographs. One of the photographs is called, "The Pale Blue Dot." That photograph is the 0.12 pixel size image of Earth. No photographs have been taken by Voyager 1 after that. Since entering into interstellar space, Voyager 1's camera was turned off because it would not be near anything close enough to photograph. The energy was saved for data sensors. That is the second furthest photograph of Earth. In 2013 a Pluto system probe also took a photograph of Earth and was further than when Voyager 1 took, "The Family Portrait."
@@indridcold8433 thanks for information. You are a genius.
I have been to the deep space array out side Canberra… it’s super amazing ! The antenna arrays are HUGE … like massive, when the array is transmitting you can stand behind it and look exactly where the probe is in the sky, even though the probe is clearly not visible there is a moment where you feel like you are connected to the brave little probe. It’s funny , but I felt lonely for the little probe
It’ll be interesting if someday we developed enough to travel out there and catch it. Would require sublight speeds like 10-20% speed of light. So like a week of travel to catch up to it.
You are right, it will happen one day .
The aliens are gonna bring it back one day. "Is this yours?"
Hmmm.....
So, that is a good way to get Extraterrestrials to visit _us_ , instead of going to them! ; >
We found this piece of shit, and thought it was yours. Just stop sending crap to space. It is crowded already.

I have a strong feeling that Voyager will be studied by some other life form other than humans.
Doubt it. The chances of there being life out there is low, even lower for it be intelligent, even lower for it to actually want to observe the universe, or to be smart enough to do so. It would need to required instruments and even if they had all that, they'd still need to find Voyager. Finding a giant asteroid is hard enough already with our current tech, a tiny spacecraft like that is almost undetectable.
I bet an advanced race will upgrade Voyager so as to send it back so it can do what it's programming is, to report back to the creator.

Venera and Voyager are, in my opinion, the most incredible probes for space exploration ever created.
I just listened to the Max Valier satellite going over, okay, a recent one launched in 2017 but Oscar 7 was launched in 1974, lost communication and then re-started again and still working. Electronics have improved so much over the years so it's good to see Voyager keep on working even with the components available when it was built, they were of course the highest quality at the time.
When Earth is swollen by the sun this little thing will still be exploring
There's no guarantee though that it would survive billions of years later. What if this little thing gets engulfed by a black hole ;(

@@1barnet1 I remember reading about that. It is located in a Firehouse and has never been turned off. Electricity runs through it heating it to glowing, I bet it is a very yellow light with a thick filament. Modern lights have tungsten filaments that are very fine, and run so hot they glow white. Atoms are thrown off the wire when it is on and coats the inside of the bulb, dimming it. It also weakens the filaments as they become thinner. Everytime it is turned on the filament heats up and stretches, then shrinks when cooling when off. Eventually it must fail. That's the price of cheap brilliant white light.

Not likely.
Based on the history of our probes, I’d bet it lasts a bit longer than 8 more years.
Well, this isn't a question of if something will break or not. The problem here is the power is almost depleted in the nuclear battery on board. The power levels have been continuously dropping since it was built. In 8 years, the power level will drop to the point where the transmitter can no longer function.

Voyager 1 is like my dad...
*didn't return home since 1970*
Malb should I laugh
Diego Santin it is not something to laugh at. Maybe his parents are divorced?
What are you 50 years old?
And he never will and will pretty much die in a few years😂
Malb *hello darkness smile friend*
Good joke! I liked it!!
I(as many others have) wondered if extraterrestrials will ever find Voyager. It's odd to think that such an object may outlast the human race as a species.
The Antenas on earth: Hey dude whats up...?!
20 hours later
The Voyager 1: Bro you won't belive the day i just had
40 more hours later What happened voyage 1 40 hours later AGAIN well you won’t believe what happened today the loop goes on
😂😂😂
When he said voyager 1 will silently disappear into the space after giving its last bit of and its valuable service to humanity, I actually felt very emotional for voyager 1. Even though its a human creation. I still wanna salute Voyager1.
This made tears roll down my eyes.
😭😭😭😭😭😭 Same here
As most of us did.
Waah pakodey waah.

Voyager 2, in the distance:

One day an alien will show up at the court, claiming that this hit his spaceship on the highway
Insurance claim 😂
This is the comment that will be a memorial 500 years later
LOOOL
GEICO! Yo quero space shit? xD
Just imagine if Voyager 1 suddenly returns to earth thousands of years from now, but none of us will ever seen or know him. Its very sad to think about it 😭
Definitely sad to think about. And a little exciting too for some reason.
It's not a living thing. No need to be sad.
will miss you guys will forever remember you our voyagers and as soon as communications stop it's only the beginning of their journey
*Voyager 1:* NASA! I don't feel so good... :(
:(
Hablo español pero de todos modos me dio tristeza.

objects can't feel like us dumbass
@@abdulkarimsaleh you dont say 😵
We act like its gone but in all actuality it just started on a journey that will outlast us.
A very small part of you ends up in another thing so you will probably outlast it

They should turn on the camera for the very last time if they can and if infact the camera is on board the spacecraft! That will be the greatest feat that mankind has ever achieved!
We’re sad about the lines “Never to be heard from again” but it has already happened to two spaceprobes, Pioneer 10 and 11 which Earth already lost contact and both are bound to Aldebaraan and constellation Aquila respectively

The current estimate is that the 2 Voyagers will no longer produce enough power to run a single instrument by ~2025. The team wants to try and keep the mission going to the 50-year mark, with the spacecraft just sending telemetry after 2025.
If the Voyagers had more power, our current Deep Space Network setup could keep in contact with them until 2057, with a bit rate of 40 bits/s.

In facts, inside Voyager there Is a gold disc with information about us
@@andreac9901 it's displayed, not inside

Maybe the aliens will catch it, melt it down, and make some beer cans out of it. xD

It’s an actual, physical disc inside the Voyager 1 and 2.

Everyone's a gangsta till the voyager comes back out of nowhere with "send nudes" written on it.
It's 5 years already we are still in contact with voyager 1
Imagine if Voyager 1 is able to take it last picture with interstellar space and send it to us before losing it power. That would be a masterpiece tho.
I thought of that but I remember watching a video saying that it would almost be impossible to do that.
There is also the fact that no one from the original Voyager programming team works at JPL/NASA anymore that recalls the coding expertise to make these changes safely. Nor does anyone learn that programming language anymore. I believe they have called some people out of retirement to maintain the current status, but a major function change that requires programming expertise could be risky at this point and could disable the spacecrafts.
@@jacobsanchez1789 That's because the plutonium aboard does not provide sufficient power to run the cameras anymore due to radioactive decay.
@@dq1275 maybe just shut off some other instruments?
@Tudor Andrei Oprea 88 years but not at full power, which has now degraded to ~50%. NASA predicts their will be insufficient power to transmit by 2032 even though performance from the thermocouples transforming power from reactor is better than expected. The power needed to effectively communicate with Earth is also increasing due to the inverse-square law causing dilution of signal from the spacecrafts. NASA [they]“continue operating until around 2025 when the available electrical power will no longer support science instrument operation. At this time science data return and spacecraft operations will end. “ “As the electrical power decreases, power loads on the spacecraft must be turned off in order to avoid having demand exceed supply. As loads are turned off, some spacecraft capabilities are eliminated.” voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/spacecraft/
This made me so sad, I just had to go find my old flip phone and give it a hug.

Hey! The Voyager is only one light day away from us. That’s incredibly close. It’s right next to us. A hundred years from now we humans will probably send another spaceship to recover it and bring it back for display in the museum. The round trip won’t take more than a fortnight.
