The Voyager 1 spacecraft is a 722-kilogram (1,592 lb) space probe launched by NASA on September 5, 1977, to study the outer Solar System and eventually interstellar space. Operating for 33 years, 11 months and 12 days as of today (17 August 2011), the spacecraft receives routine commands and transmits data back to the Deep Space Network. It will be the first probe to leave the Solar System and is the farthest man made object from Earth.
The two Voyager satellites have left the solar system and passed the "heliopause", the boundary layer between the solar system and deep space.

V2 Launch Date: 1977-08-20 14:29:00 UTC

Voyager 1 is the spacecraft that has crossed the solar system and entered outer space. It was launched by NASA in 1977 to study the outer planets and has since continued to travel beyond our solar system into interstellar space.

∙ 11y agothe name of the space craft is voyager 1and 2
the date when it was launched was------------?
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoBoth Voyager 1 and 2 have travelled through the solar system, I believe Voyager 1 is the only one which has left the solar system (or is in the process of).

What do the outer planets have going around them?
The outer planets in our solar system have many moons orbiting around them. They also have rings, with Saturn being the most well-known for its extensive ring system. Additionally, the outer planets have a variety of spacecraft that have been sent to study them, such as the Galileo spacecraft for Jupiter and the Cassini spacecraft for Saturn.
What is the abbreviated name of the spacecraft parked 1.5 million km closer to the sun?
The spacecraft is called the Parker Solar Probe (PSP). It was launched in 2018 to study the outer corona of the sun and the solar wind. It is the closest approach any spacecraft has made to the sun.
What kind of trajectory was used by Galileo spacecraft?
The Galileo spacecraft used a gravity-assist trajectory to reach Jupiter. This involved slingshot maneuvers around Venus and Earth to gain the necessary velocity to reach the outer solar system.
Is earth part of the inner solar system or the outer system?
Earth is part of the Inner Solar System.
Where is Jupiter located in the inner or outer of the solar system?
Jupiter is located in the outer region of the solar system, beyond the asteroid belt.
What is the name of the spacecraft which has now crossed the solar system and has gone outer space what is the date when it was launched?
Voyager I and II are pretty much on the edge of solar system.
What is name of spacecraft which has now crossed the solar system and has gone into outer space?
Both Voyager 1 and 2 have travelled through the solar system, I believe Voyager 1 is the only one which has left the solar system (or is in the process of).

What are the voyager probes?
The two Voyager space probes are robotic spacecraft launched in 1977 as the first spacecraft to examine the outer planets. Both are still operating, having passed the orbits of the outer planets, and drifting toward the boundary of the solar system.
Where in outer space can you go?
You can go to many planets
How many shuttles does voyager have?
The Voyager spacecraft does not have shuttles. It is a pair of robotic spacecraft launched by NASA in 1977 to study the outer Solar System. Each Voyager spacecraft is equipped with scientific instruments to study planets and their moons but does not have shuttles for transportation.
What is bigger solar system or outer space?
Outer space is much bigger than the solar system.
Which are the outer planets in the solar system?
The outer (major) planets of our solar system are the 4 gas giants:JupiterSaturnUranusNeptuneFurthermore, 4 out of the 5 dwarf planets are also in the outer solar system, beyond the orbit of neptune:PlutoHaumeaMakemakeEris
Why can't we explore the stars with spacecraft the way we explore our solar system?
because they are far away from our solar system
How fast can a man made spacecraft travel in outer space?
Man-made spacecraft can travel at speeds up to about 17,500 miles per hour (28,000 kilometers per hour) in outer space. This speed allows spacecraft to escape Earth's gravitational pull and travel to other planets, moons, and even beyond our solar system.
Which explains the outer gas planets when the solar system formed?
B. The young sun's solar winds pushed gases outward to the outer solar system.
