Voyager 2

The Voyager 2 spacecraft is now in interstellar space, a region beyond the heliosphere – the protective bubble of particles and magnetic fields created by the Sun – where the only other human-made object is its twin, Voyager 1.

  • Voyager 2 is a space probe launched by NASA on August 20, 1977, to study the outer planets.
  • Voyager 2 is the second artificial object to leave the Solar System after Voyager 1.
