ALT This color photograph shows Voyager 1 launching atop its Titan/Centaur-6 launch vehicle from the Kennedy Space Center on September 5, 1977. Near the top of the frame, the tip of the rocket is visible. Below, the rocket and launchpad is obscured by billowing white clouds of gas and exhaust. The photograph has a grainy vintage filmic quality, with the brightest colors appearing yellowed and the shadows appearing lavender.
ALT This black and white photograph shows Voyager 1 being encapsulated at Kennedy Space Center ahead of launch. The image is taken from a low angle, looking up at Voyager against a background of clean room scaffolding and infrastructure.
ALT Illustration of a Voyager spacecraft in space, silhouetted against a colorful, star-filled background in shades of purple and blue. The spacecraft's large dish antenna and extended instrument arms are prominently visible, evoking its ongoing journey through interstellar space.
ALT Illustrated graphic showing the positions of NASAās Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 spacecraft as they travel beyond the heliosphere into interstellar space. The image depicts the Sun at the center, surrounded by the blue termination shock, the outer heliosheath, and the edge of the heliosphere. Both spacecraft have crossed the heliopauseāthe boundary where the solar wind is stopped by the interstellar mediumāmarking their entry into interstellar space. The background features colorful clouds of interstellar gas and distant stars, highlighting the vastness of space beyond our solar system.
ALT Collage of twelve images taken by NASA's Voyager spacecraft during their encounters with Jupiter and its moons. The images show: close-ups of Jupiterās swirling cloud tops and Great Red Spot; the planet's faint ring system; and detailed views of its four largest moonsāIo, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. The moons appear in various colors and lighting, with visible surface features such as volcanic activity on Io, icy cracks on Europa, and cratered terrain on Ganymede and Callisto.
ALT The Ingenuity Mars Helicopter is shown in a very rocky and sandy area of Mars. The silver and gray rotorcraft is stationary, with four rotor blades stacked on top of its boxy body as it stands on the reddish-hued surface.
