Exploring the Outer Planets: The Voyager Mission

The Voyager mission, launched in 1977, aimed to study Jupiter, Saturn, and their moons. It later extended to Uranus and Neptune due to a rare planetary alignment. Equipped with advanced sensors, the spacecraft provided groundbreaking data, including the discovery of active volcanism on Io and complex ring systems around Saturn. Voyager 1 and 2 continue to send data from interstellar space, revolutionizing planetary astronomy.
