Voyager 2: the story of its mission so far – in pictures


An illustration from 1965 shows the calculated trajectories of Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. Launched 16 days apart, the two probes were designed to take advantage of a rare alignment of the outer planets that occurs once every 176 years. Their trajectories have taken them by the outer planets, where they have captured never-before-seen images. Jupiter and Saturn gave them a ‘gravity assist’, boosting their velocity. Though both spacecraft were destined for interstellar space, they followed slightly different trajectories

My father worked on projects for both of them when he worked for TRW. He died in 1986.
