The first Voyager turned 45 years old on 8/20/2022. The second voyager will do the same on 9/5/2022.  The Voyagers are still on the cutting- edge of space exploration and remain the only probes to ever explore interstellar space or the galactic ocean that the sun and its planets travel through. Part of what makes the sun and its planets so difficult to investigate is the heleosphere. The heleosphere is a protective bubble created by the sun's magnetic field and an outward flow of charged particles from the sun called solar wind.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Heading into their 45th year of space service, the Voyager probes are a bit of an interstellar time capsule. According to NASA, they each carry an eight track tape player to record data, contain about 3 million times less memory than modern cell phones, and transmit that data about 38,000 times slower than current day 5G internet connection. NASA notes that its researchers, are combining Voyager's observations with data from newer space exploration missions to build a more complete picture of our sun and how the heliosphere interacts with interstellar space.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           Between the two probes, Voyager 1 and 2 have explored all the giant planets of our outer solar system (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune), 48 of their moons, and their unique system of rings and magnetic fields. As of April 2020, Voyager 1 is about 13.9 billion miles away from the sun, continuing its mission to explore the far reaches of the universe.
