How far is voyager 1 away from the sun?
Voyager 1 is currently approximately 14 billion miles away from the Sun.
Which space ship has travelled farthest from the earth and to where?
As of now, the farthest spacecraft from Earth is Voyager 1. It has reached interstellar space, located about 14 billion miles away from Earth. Voyager 1 was launched by NASA in 1977 and continues to send back data to Earth.
What was the distance between voyager 1 and earth?
As of December '08 Voyager 1 is about 10 billion miles from Earth
What space mission has traveled the farthest from earth?
That would have to be the Voyager Project. It left the Solar System some years ago and it's still going strong.
How many miles has the Voyager 1 spacecraft traveled so far?
Remember, the question is how many miles has the Voyager 1 spacecraft traveled, (Not how far is it from the sun or Earth). Voyager 1 left Earth on 09/05/1977 and today is 06/28/2013. That is approximately 35 3/4th years. In October of 1978, Voyager 1 was traveling at a speed of 34,422 mph, 55397 kph. By March 1979 she had increased her speed to a top speed of 82,935 mph, 133471 kph during her fly by of Jupiter. There are current readings that Voyager 1 is now traveling at a diminishing speed of 37,500 mph, 60,350kph. After all the calculations of the speed differential and speed duration, the average speed is calculated to 37,900 mph. That would mean that the approximate total miles that Voyager 1 has traveled is 11,869,770,400 miles or 19,102,543km. Now the distance from the Sun to Voyager 1 is approximately 122 AUs (Astronomical units). An AU is the distance from the Earth to the sun and that is approximately 92,955,807 miles, 149597870 km which would make the distance from the sun to Voyager 1, 11,340,608,454 miles.
How far is voyager 1 away from the sun?
Voyager 1 is currently approximately 14 billion miles away from the Sun.
Where is the 1977 launched voyager now?
There were two Voyager spacecraft launched in 1977. The most distant is Voyager 1 which is currently just of 10 billion miles from the Sun. Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, both launched in 1977 are now both in the region of the solar sytem called the heliosheath, over 16 Billion kilometres away form the earth. The heliosheath is the region of the solar system between the Termination Shock Zone and the Heliopause
Where are voyager 1 2 right now?
Some where outside the solar syatems. It can be just floating over thmilky way. No one can pin point where it is roght now on a map of the universe!!! Voyager 1 and 2 are now in what is called the"Heliosheath". This is the outermost layer of what is known as the Heliosphere. We are still receiving information from both spacecrafts. In March of 2012 Voyager 1 was at an approximate distance of 17.9 Billion kilometers away from our sun. Voyager 2 was at an approximate distance of 14.7 Billion kilometers away from our sun.
How far into outer space have humans explored with a satellite?
Voyager 2 was launched on Aug. 20, 1977. Voyager 1 was launched on Sept. 5, 1977. On March 7, Voyager 1 was 17.4 billion kilometers (10.8 billion miles) away from the sun. Voyager 2 was 14.2 billion kilometers (8.8 billion miles) away from the sun, on a different trajectory. To my knowledge these are objects are the farthest man made creations from our star.

Which man-made object is presently farthest away from the earth Is it the hubble satelite?
The farthest man-made object from Earth is Voyager 1 spacecraft, which was launched by NASA in 1977. It has since traveled beyond our solar system and continues to transmit data back to Earth. Hubble Space Telescope is in low Earth orbit and not as far from Earth as Voyager 1.
What do satellites and probes do out of your solar system?
The farthest probe away from Earth is Voyager 1. As of 2011, it hasn't left the solar system, but it will relatively soon. When it does, it will continue sending back data about the parts of outer space that it is in. The craft Voyager two, which not quite as far away as Voyager 1, will do the same thing. The crafts Pioneer 10 and 11 are also headed out of the solar system, but we no longer have radio contact with them, so they will just be objects flying through space.
What space mission has traveled the farthest from earth?
That would have to be the Voyager Project. It left the Solar System some years ago and it's still going strong.
Where exactly is Voyager 1 right now?
Voyager 1 and 2 were launched in 1977, and explored the outer planets during the 70's and 80's. They are still partially operational today, on their way out of our solar system. Voyager 1 is the most distant man made object to date, currently around 116 astronomical units from earth.

Is JPL and NASA still in communication with the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecrafts?
Yes, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) remains in communication with both Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 spacecraft. While the spacecraft are in interstellar space, they continue to send back scientific data, with Voyager 2 being 11 billion miles away and Voyager 1 more than 14 billion miles away from Earth.
