How did gravity assist the voyagers flight to Neptune?
Voyager 2 took 12 years to get to Neptune and it got there via gravity assist also known as the slingshot effect. It went past the orbit of mars onward to Jupiter, using its massive gravity to deflect the space craft towards Saturn. It used Saturn's gravitational pull to deflect itself towards Uranus and did the same thing with Uranus's gravity. Eventually it arrived at Neptune's orbit. It would probably take longer nowadays to do the same thing, because rockets are not built as efficiently as they were back then to get to where they wanted to go.
How can the mass of a planet be used to aid probes in space such as voyager?
Well, Voyager is now well beyond much useful gravitational influence of any of the solar system's planets. What we have learned is that planetary gravity wells can be used to provide a boost to passing spacecraft. Since Voyager most spacecraft to the outer planets spend some time in the inner system first, performing slingshots from one planet to the next to increase velocity. Each of these maneuvers robs a wee bit of the planet's angular momentum.
Is voyager a satellite?
Voyager is a spacecraft probe. It is not a satellite. NASA's twin Voyager spacecraft launched in August and September 1977. Voyager 1 focused on Jupiter and Saturn., while Voyager 2 flew past Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
What was the first planet discovered by the Voyager space probe?
Voyager did not discover any new planets. By the time Voyager was launched we already knew of all the planets in our solar system that we know of today. There were also two Voyager probes, not one. The first planet that either probe studied was Jupiter, which we had known for millennia. Voyager 1 flew by Jupiter in March 1979 while Voyager 2 flew by in July of the same year.
Was Pioneer 1 the first man made object to leave the solar system?
There has never been a man made object to leave the Solar System. There are however, two objects which may escape the influence of Sol and enter the interstellar medium. These objects are the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 spacecraft. It is currently unknown which will leave the system first, as although Voyager 1 was launched first, peculiarities of the nature of the Solar System may mean that Voyager 2 breaks the heliosphere first.

How much does voyager 1 weigh?
Almost nothing, weight is a force exerted due to gravity and since Voyager 1 is well outside the solar system there will be almost no gravitational force acting upon it.
Missions that explored the outer Solar system?
Voyager I and Voyager II although they were not planned to.
Where is voyager 1 in your solar system?
It is exiting our solar system.
Are Voyager is now traveling beyond your solar system?
Both Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 are on trajectories that will one day cause them to exit the solar system, but they are both still within its accepted boundaries.
Was the voyager manned?
No, the Voyager mission involved two space probes, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, which were unmanned spacecraft launched by NASA in 1977 to explore the outer planets of our solar system. The probes have continued to travel beyond the solar system into interstellar space.
What are the 2 space vehicles that have traveled further in the solar system?
Voyager 2 and Voyager 10 There isn't a Voyager 10. You probably meant Pioneer 10.
Why are space missions Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 special?
Because they were the first vehicles to leave the solar system.
Does gravity help peristalsis?
Gravity does not directly help peristalsis, which is the involuntary contraction and relaxation of muscles that helps move food through the digestive tract. Peristalsis is controlled by the enteric nervous system in the gastrointestinal tract. Gravity can slightly assist in moving food down the esophagus when swallowing, but peristalsis is the main force that propels food through the digestive system.

What type of audio system is in a 1992 Plymouth Voyager?
Infinity
