What else can I help you with?
How gravity assist works?
Gravity assists use the gravitational pull of a celestial body, like a planet or moon, to alter the speed and direction of a spacecraft traveling through space. By flying close to these bodies and entering their gravitational fields, a spacecraft can gain or lose velocity without expending fuel, allowing it to reach destinations more efficiently and achieve greater speeds. This technique has been used in many space missions, such as NASA's Voyager and Cassini spacecraft.
How far can a radio wave travel into space?
Radio waves can travel indefinitely through space until they dissipate or are absorbed by particles in space. The farthest man-made radio signal, the Voyager 1 spacecraft, has been transmitting radio signals back to Earth from over 14 billion miles away.
Does a rocket stay the same speed through-out its journey?
No, a rocket does not stay at the same speed throughout its journey. The rocket experiences acceleration as it moves through the atmosphere and then into space. During this acceleration phase, the rocket speeds up until it reaches its desired velocity for the remainder of its journey.
Can you ever get rid of gravity?
No, gravity is a fundamental force of nature and cannot be removed. However, its effects can be counteracted to some extent through technology such as elevators or spacecraft.
Is it possible to create artificial gravity?
Yes, it is possible to create artificial gravity through methods such as rotating spacecraft or using centrifugal force to simulate the effects of gravity.
How far did the Voyager 1 spacecraft travel into space?
The Voyager 1 spacecraft is still traveling through space! Both Voyager 1 and 2 were sent to visit some of the planets of our solar system, but as there is no way to bring them back, they will continue to travel through the vast distances of space forever! Both Voyager spacecraft are still communicating with the NASA team and will continue to do so as they have electrical power to operate some functions until 2020 (though they do not power their cameras anymore). After 2020 the Voyager crafts will run out of power (so this will be about 43 years after they were launched) and be forever silent and continue on their endless journey through space for billions of years to come.
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.
Has Voyager 2 reached Pluto?
Voyager 2 never went to Pluto. Given the positions of the planets in their orbits at the time, we could not send it on a trajectory to get there. Currently Voyager 2 is well beyond the orbit of Pluto and will soon enter interstellar space.
What is name of spacecraft which has now crossed the solar system and has gone into outer space?
Both Voyager 1 and 2 have travelled through the solar system, I believe Voyager 1 is the only one which has left the solar system (or is in the process of).
How many spacecraft have visited Neptune?
Only one through 2009. The Voyager 2 probe visited Neptune in 1989, having previously passed Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus. Voyager 2 took the first close-up photos of the Neptunian moon Triton and discovered 5 new inner moons.
What are the human explorations of Saturn?
Humans have not yet explored Saturn directly. All observations of Saturn have been made through robotic spacecraft, such as the Voyager and Cassini missions. These missions have provided valuable information about Saturn's atmosphere, rings, and moons.
What spacecraft has various instruments that can collect data but has no human crew?
An example of a spacecraft with various instruments that can collect data but has no human crew is a robotic probe like NASA's Voyager spacecraft. Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 are equipped with a range of scientific instruments to study planets, moons, and other celestial bodies in our solar system. These probes have provided valuable data and imagery while journeying through space for decades.
What is the longest distance a spacecraft has traveled?
Voyager I and Voyager II, launched in 1977 have flown to the edge of our solar system. As of February 2009, Voyager I is about 10 billion miles (10,000,000,000) from the sun. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voyager_I
Where can one purchase a BT Voyager?
A BT Voyager can be purchased through many locations. It can be found through the Voyager website. The modems can also be purchased at the shopping section of the BT website.
What pieces of equipment have actually flown through and studied most of the solar system?
Some of the most notable spacecraft that have flown through and studied most of the solar system include Voyager 1 and 2, Cassini-Huygens, and New Horizons. These spacecraft have provided groundbreaking data and images of planets, moons, and other celestial bodies in our solar system.
Is it possible to make a vehicle big as a spacecraft then fly it through the spacecraft?
No, it wouldn't fit.
What is a summary for a journey through Texas?
Okay, so these guys. They went on a journey. And their journey, It was through Texas.
