I was 9 years old when the Voyager 1 spacecraft was launched in 1977, and I remember being excited about it as a kid. I will turn 56 years old in three weeks, and it is unbelievable that the spacecraft is still going and working!
Check back in a few million years or so. In about 100 trillion years, it will have circled the entire universe and return to earth in the direction opposite of which it left.
No, it is not light that is fast. But what frightens is the vastness of the space. Distance is what truly frightening. In this emptiness and vastness, light is the only visible mass less entity that travels slowly. Light, it just travels.
It is only a light day away! It needs to travel 364 x 50 years more to be just one light year away! And the closest stars are around 4 light years away from us... space is so huge, I cyn't even comprehend it 😮
This said ...hits me like a ton of bricks..... Voyager 1 and 2 with all the human involvement to build and construct them with all the blood sweat and tears necessary to complete them they will surely outlive humanity tenfold. I'm sitting here dumbfounded after realizing that conception. Holy mother of the Universe. Carl Sagan will live forever😢
This thing travels 17 kilometers every second. Now wait a few billion years - And you travel 1,7% of Milkyway. That is fucking unbelievable. Milkyway is infinity itself to humans.
Whoa, this is mind blowing and so interesting how and what voyager will continue to see on it's journey. Space is so vast, mysterious, and wonderful all at the same time... Great video!
I wonder if one day we'll reach a technological level where a mission will actually fly out, pick the Voyager probes up and bring them back to Earth to put them in a museum.
Nah, we will let them fly, or at the least replace the power supplies and upgrade the instruments so they can continue to be useful. Albeit they ain’t gonna see much now.
This was a very interesting video and you don't deserve all of the hateful comments! Some people are just mean for no real reason (criticism is fine, even important, but being mean isn't constructive criticism). Please keep going and don't give up!
Good video, I've been following the Voyagers for many years, I was 19 years old when they were launched, and I'm fascinated by their ability to have traveled this far, thanks for posting. Subbed 👍🇺🇸
The shear ingenuity of those engineers building a craft that is still travelling through the cosmos is amazing. They could never have imagined it still working after all these years.
I'd like to meet the sound/electronic/etc engineers who actually make it possible to hear the Voyageur 1 from 15 (50 in video) billion miles. Truly remarkable, a testament to what man has achieved on Earth.
If something ever listens to that record, and decide to visit, they are going to find a completely different place and probably hightail it back to where they came from.
No need to worry about that gold plated record. Absolutely no one is out there to try and figure out what it is!😊 We are alone in this universe! The almighty God created this wonderful huge expanded we call the universe, and the Bible doesn't say anything about other civilizations or people that are out there. The Bible talks about the earth, and mentions the stars briefly, and that's it.
My understanding is Golden Record on the Voyagers will last over a Billion years. They both have record players to play the disc. I just hope they didn't forget to put the needle on the players.
The golden disk has a picture of how to place the needle (stored behind it) and how to move it for it to "play". -> It even has another picture of a "circle" [the very first image] as how it should be generated (if placed, played & the data processed correctly) by a projector set up in the right resolution format & speed rate [communicated using symbols, measurements of distance & time based on the basic info about the hydrogen atom].
I remember when the Voyagers launched. It will be sad a time when we lose contact with them, either due to equipment failure (TWTAs rock!) or simply path loss of the signals.
[Technically speaking]: It is not like we will "lost all contact" by 2025, but rather it would not be able to perform "useful work" anymore (as a scientist instrument). . The sensors & 2 of the 3 main computers could be shutdown to save power (then only the transmitter will keep "beeping" towards Earth). This can possible extend its "lifetime" as a mere "beacon" for many decades. -> It still needs to "listen" from Earth from time to time, to correct any minor deviations on the directionality of its high gain antenna [otherwise it may not be able to "hear" any corrections anymore, hence drifting aimlessly].
By the time the Voyager's equipment begins to fail, we'll have the technology to speedily catch up to the craft and effect repairs. I once read a story about a space ship's long voyage to our nearest star. Generations were born, lived their entire life aboard the craft and died. After many generations, the ship finally arrives, only to find a welcoming party awaiting them. Technology had improved so much since the ship's initial launch that better and much faster ships had gone on ahead of them, and gave the finally arriving ship a hearty welcoming! BHE

It doesn’t make any sense to say that it passes by or through constellations. Pass by specific stars sure, but constellations are not actually a structure in space.
Yeah you’re correct that they aren’t actual structures in space, but when we say an object in space “passes through” a constellation we are actually referring to how it appears to move across these patterns from our viewpoint. It’s just a convenient way to describe the movement relative to the patterns even though there is no actual passage through a physical structure if that makes sense.
@@Ventus3 Thank you so much for the video! Not trying to be persnickety about it, but I think that your definition is somewhat misleading. For instance, I could stand 6 feet away from you, with, say the constellation Orion behind me. And I could walk two steps sideways and "pass through" (move across) Orion from your viewpoint.
With how much information can be stored today, and how much has happened in the past 50 years, why don't we launch a new Voyager, with all updated music, movies, art, history, and technology?
After the heat death of the universe, due to the expansion of the universe, it could still continue to roam space without a single other atom or particle within a measurement equal to the radius of our observable universe.
The Great Red Spot is where internal heat from Jupiter’s core rises up and reaches the surface I think not from energy from planetary contractions but from some sort of nuclear fusion occurring on the surface of a mostly metallic solid core generating enough heat to also drive the Jovian weather belts.
Why send 1 voyger into space far away into 1 path exploring our galxy and solar system? How about sending multiple voyagers all around earth explore our galaxy and solar system in a complete sphere shape expansion covering all our surroundings?
Voyagers were accelerated using gravitational assistance of particular planet configuration in our solar system. We can't accelerate it like this anymore in a couple of hundreds years.
Voyager 1 travels at 633 miles a minute, 10.5 miles a second. You'd never even know it if it were to pass you by on the street. You wouldn't ever see a blur.
Just imagine the havoc that would be wreaked on the evangelicals if we find out we are not alone, and the GOD of another civilization is 1000 times more powerful than any that have been dreamed up here. Hope I'm here to see it.
Stuff like this is why I think the fermi paradox is dumb. There is no paradox. If life is out there, it would have to travel for an almost incomprehensible amount of time to ever get to us. We should never expect to hear from alien life.
Based on what we know now, maybe that’s true. But 4,000 years ago I’m pretty sure humans didn’t expect to be able to ever send a message halfway around the world in a matter of seconds either.
There was some article that came out a couple of years ago that was written I believe some astrophysicist or astronomer and it mentioned that any extraterrestrial life that visits us will likely be robots or AI probes built by some likely extinct alien species. Almost doubt that humans would be able to travel beyond the Solar System because of our nature. We're evolved to live and hunt on the East African Plain of 2 million years ago and that's what our brains and bodies are adapted for. We'd, as a species, be doing things that we're not evolved to do. Living inside the confines of a spaceship for most of your life, living in a space suit (earth-like planets are VERY rare) for whatever planet or moon we visit, everyone on board would have to get along, don't want any narcissists or sociopaths in the crew (everyone would have to be good-natured and care about each other), and the further from Earth or human base we get away from, the longer it would take for communication to travel and hopefully, the spaceship doesn't blow up or something goes wrong or someone onboard goes crazy...you're screwed. But then again, the explorers went through that in the 1500's in the oceans. See where this goes.
How is it possible that we had that high level of sophisticated technology 47 years ago to send Voyager 1 over a billion miles away from the planet? And have it send pictures and information back to earth from that distance.
It's not sending pictures from that distance. The cameras were closed down years ago. As far as travelling, there's nothing to stop it or slow it down.
It's NOT possible. All this is just a PACK IF LIES! NONE of those things, or places, even exist! Think about it..just because we have God's gift of IMAGINATION doesn't mean we have to BELIEVE what others conjure up....
Very interesting video ! The on-board computer is only 69,63kb ! And sending commands and info to us is a miracle ! Our cellphones today are easily 10k times faster and better ! So, i wonder how computing will be in 5 decades !
Actually not. It means that every instance of life on this planet is totally unique, and should be respected as such. The implications are we'd better start doing a lot better at looking after our home and our fellow travellers - each and every one of us is precious and unique in the universe.@@Swervin309
I have a question and please people don't be irritated because I know very little about space. Maybe I'm wrong but from what I've learned is that at the core of our galaxy there's a black hole that's pulling everything in the milky way towards it in a spiral trajectory. How come the Voyager's trajectory is pulling them away from this strong magnetic "field" of the black hole? Aren't these Voyagers supposed to be traveling towards the black hole?
For the very same reason our sun and planets aren't being drawn to this central galactic black hole....because we are revovling AROUND it. I SHOULD know, for I am BHE!
It's crazy how we had to wait almost 50 years for it to leave the solar system, while if it traveled with the speed of light it would be in the same place after only 24 hours
Give it Up Dude . I called it the quits long time ago because the Universe can't be comprehended with the Human mind ! Forget the end of the observable Universe, Even if we had in our wildest imagination a Starship Enterprise with Warp 9 drive that's hundreds of times the speed of light could never reach the closest Galaxy Andromeda . The edge of the observable can't be comprehended .
Can someone please clarify this for me. The narrator says a quintillion miles is only 1.7 percent of the milky way's diameter. The milky way's diameter is estimated to be 100000 light years. So, a quintillion miles is actually much closer to 59% of the Milky Way's diameter, not 1.7%.
Yes no one can predict where it will be but with 100% certainty but we can predict how far it will travel if nothing happens to it with very simple math
The most overwhelming thing is the fact that we can still communicate with the satellites over a distance of 24 billion kilometers. Consider that the transmission power of the satellite is not much more than that of a smartphone.
Can you tell in what direction Voyager travels? Sounds like towards centre of Milky Way? I know it can't be seen, but I'm curious where on the night sky it can be?
Remember the Pioneer 10 and 11. Those probes still move up to this day but unfortunately can't send back signals due to the decay of the RTGs. The last signal was 2003. Both going to Constellation Taurus and Scutum. But the Voyagers overtook them as the farthest human made object.
Its truly crazy to think in a 100,000 years, maybe even 1,000,000 years or more, if Voyager hasnt decayed away or been destroyed, some distant civilisation may intercept it and realise somewhere in that vast darkness there is somebody else. By then human beings may well be long extinct.
Ahh please 40 years from now some trillionaire will make plans to retrieve them and in about 65 years from now voyager 1&2 will either be in a private collection or in a museum
Have Voyager 1 and 2 completely passed the Oort cloud and entered the void of space? The heliosphere and interstellar medium sounds like it might be in the kuiper belt still. Those 2 probes need to pass the cloud to truly be in interstellar space.
The Voyagers can go on forever provided they don't get destroyed by space debris, or go on a collision course with a celestial body like a planet, star or be engulfed by a black hole... But the odds of it is very low as space is mostly empty..many light years separate each star systems..
If we do become a serious space faring civilization, I wonder if it would be possible for future human spacecraft to find and recover the voyager probes, and return them to Earth.
This is incredible!! Voyager 1 as been absolutely awesome. Just imagine how proud the engineers must feel who designed and built it!!

Just imagine the havoc that would be wreaked on the evangelicals if we find out we are not alone, and the GOD of another civilization is 1000 times more powerful than any that have been dreamed up here. Hope I'm here to see it.
Stuff like this is why I think the fermi paradox is dumb. There is no paradox. If life is out there, it would have to travel for an almost incomprehensible amount of time to ever get to us. We should never expect to hear from alien life.
Based on what we know now, maybe that’s true. But 4,000 years ago I’m pretty sure humans didn’t expect to be able to ever send a message halfway around the world in a matter of seconds either.
Its not even a question IF there is life out there. But WHERE, WHAT AND HOW
@@ludapecurka102there’s most certainly microbial life out there somewhere, but I think the OP and myself had intelligent life in mind.
There was some article that came out a couple of years ago that was written I believe some astrophysicist or astronomer and it mentioned that any extraterrestrial life that visits us will likely be robots or AI probes built by some likely extinct alien species. Almost doubt that humans would be able to travel beyond the Solar System because of our nature. We're evolved to live and hunt on the East African Plain of 2 million years ago and that's what our brains and bodies are adapted for. We'd, as a species, be doing things that we're not evolved to do. Living inside the confines of a spaceship for most of your life, living in a space suit (earth-like planets are VERY rare) for whatever planet or moon we visit, everyone on board would have to get along, don't want any narcissists or sociopaths in the crew (everyone would have to be good-natured and care about each other), and the further from Earth or human base we get away from, the longer it would take for communication to travel and hopefully, the spaceship doesn't blow up or something goes wrong or someone onboard goes crazy...you're screwed. But then again, the explorers went through that in the 1500's in the oceans. See where this goes.
@@navyvet05interesting thought. Or like the ISS travelling around the planet every 90 minutes. Unimaginable even 300 yrs ago.
would a future encounter with intellagent life mean they could calculate VOYEGER 1'S trajectory back to earth
How is it possible that we had that high level of sophisticated technology 47 years ago to send Voyager 1 over a billion miles away from the planet? And have it send pictures and information back to earth from that distance.
And with less computing power than is in a car's key fob.
It's not sending pictures from that distance. The cameras were closed down years ago. As far as travelling, there's nothing to stop it or slow it down.
It's NOT possible. All this is just a PACK IF LIES! NONE of those things, or places, even exist! Think about it..just because we have God's gift of IMAGINATION doesn't mean we have to BELIEVE what others conjure up....
@@davidhollingsworth864 Others conjured up God. Think about it!
@@davidhollingsworth864You're bearing false witness. You're not a Christian.
We will catch up with it, and send it "home" to place it in a museum, in about 50-100 years...
LMAO
The universe is so vast. It doesn't make sense to go in the same path and bring back that voyager when there is so much more to explore
Why NASA never sends another voyager built with todays modern technology.
So cool, they setup cameras to record videos of Voyager 1 flying by the Saturn!
I fucking love space
Crazy to think for how long it’s been traveling that isn’t only 24 light hours away
Mind blowing considering it was developed and launched way back in the 1960s 🤔
Except..... 70's. 🤔
Very interesting video ! The on-board computer is only 69,63kb ! And sending commands and info to us is a miracle ! Our cellphones today are easily 10k times faster and better ! So, i wonder how computing will be in 5 decades !
How disappointing it would be if it travelled 100 billion miles just to crash into a meteor or some other celestial body.
Equally disappointing would be if it were never found by another civilization.
@@Swervin309Or, to be found by a civilization that is made up of only dinosaurs.
@@cappyjones Chicago? LOL
Or will land on gold eating creatures civilisation and plate will be eaten like cookie
Actually not. It means that every instance of life on this planet is totally unique, and should be respected as such. The implications are we'd better start doing a lot better at looking after our home and our fellow travellers - each and every one of us is precious and unique in the universe.@@Swervin309
Wow. Text-to-speech has gotten really good! 😲
It's gotten better. This is still hard to listen to, iyam.
Those visuals in the video are extremely good can you tell me how can I make those visuals? I'm interested in making space content on RUclips as well.
Am I getting this right that the Voyager 1 will continue its trip indefinitely, only by inertia?
NASA is to be commended for their expertise in building these machines, true marvels of technology
They say humanity will never reach the end of a solar system.
Nothing like a little existential crisis of how big and endless space is before bed
I have a question and please people don't be irritated because I know very little about space. Maybe I'm wrong but from what I've learned is that at the core of our galaxy there's a black hole that's pulling everything in the milky way towards it in a spiral trajectory. How come the Voyager's trajectory is pulling them away from this strong magnetic "field" of the black hole? Aren't these Voyagers supposed to be traveling towards the black hole?
For the very same reason our sun and planets aren't being drawn to this central galactic black hole....because we are revovling AROUND it. I SHOULD know, for I am BHE!
It would be great if it images could be beamed live on TV so we could enjoy the journey.
And there is the possibility that after enough time, it will be taken by us back to Earth.
It's crazy how we had to wait almost 50 years for it to leave the solar system, while if it traveled with the speed of light it would be in the same place after only 24 hours
Give it Up Dude . I called it the quits long time ago because the Universe can't be comprehended with the Human mind ! Forget the end of the observable Universe, Even if we had in our wildest imagination a Starship Enterprise with Warp 9 drive that's hundreds of times the speed of light could never reach the closest Galaxy Andromeda . The edge of the observable can't be comprehended .
I imagine one day we’ll be able to travel faster through space & catch up with Voyager 1 & 2.
Great video! I learned a lot about voyager 1
I wouldn’t have minded being aboard Voyager. It would be somewhat of a relief to escape from this world.
Hopefully we’ll catch up with it
At this rate, it's gonna take longer for Voyager 1 to reach the next star than it does for me to decide what to watch on Netflix
You are so underrated bro 😢
Can someone please clarify this for me. The narrator says a quintillion miles is only 1.7 percent of the milky way's diameter. The milky way's diameter is estimated to be 100000 light years. So, a quintillion miles is actually much closer to 59% of the Milky Way's diameter, not 1.7%.
They don't know how far it can travel - thanks for an obviously ChatGBT inspired monologue...
Yes no one can predict where it will be but with 100% certainty but we can predict how far it will travel if nothing happens to it with very simple math
The most overwhelming thing is the fact that we can still communicate with the satellites over a distance of 24 billion kilometers. Consider that the transmission power of the satellite is not much more than that of a smartphone.
Can you tell in what direction Voyager travels? Sounds like towards centre of Milky Way? I know it can't be seen, but I'm curious where on the night sky it can be?
Remember the Pioneer 10 and 11. Those probes still move up to this day but unfortunately can't send back signals due to the decay of the RTGs. The last signal was 2003. Both going to Constellation Taurus and Scutum. But the Voyagers overtook them as the farthest human made object.
There are no other lifeform so brave like human dare to tell other who they are n where they are in the univers.
Its truly crazy to think in a 100,000 years, maybe even 1,000,000 years or more, if Voyager hasnt decayed away or been destroyed, some distant civilisation may intercept it and realise somewhere in that vast darkness there is somebody else. By then human beings may well be long extinct.
Ahh please 40 years from now some trillionaire will make plans to retrieve them and in about 65 years from now voyager 1&2 will either be in a private collection or in a museum
Subscribers don't matter but content definitely matter's.
It’s a pretty small object. I suspect it will be eventually ablated to nothing.
Smaller objects have significantly less chances of colliding in space.
How cool would it be to be in a spacecraft traveling these distances into space
Have Voyager 1 and 2 completely passed the Oort cloud and entered the void of space? The heliosphere and interstellar medium sounds like it might be in the kuiper belt still. Those 2 probes need to pass the cloud to truly be in interstellar space.
Maybe one day, it will crash land into someone's backyard on earth with a note that says: Return to Sender.
The Voyagers can go on forever provided they don't get destroyed by space debris, or go on a collision course with a celestial body like a planet, star or be engulfed by a black hole... But the odds of it is very low as space is mostly empty..many light years separate each star systems..
Wouldn’t it be strange if it suddenly appeared coming into our galaxy the other way
Sorta like a man made comet but it would have to grow a tail first.
It's possible 🤗
Basically Star Trek The Motion Picture
@@dr-doctor-1992
On its way back to sterilise the earth
You mean voyager coming back to our solar system?
From Indonesia said that's amazing teknology...
Great presentation!
Faster than light travel needs to be developed ASAP.
Amazing because technology on the Voyagers are from the 70s. Both Voyagers were Blasted off the same year Elvis Presley passed.
If we do become a serious space faring civilization, I wonder if it would be possible for future human spacecraft to find and recover the voyager probes, and return them to Earth.
easily done for sure once we invent fast travel. After all we know exactly where it is/should be
The only thing we need to find out before doing so is a reason to do it.
FYI the OORT cloud from our solar system extends almost to centauri
Just wow. This is wild!
