Voyager: Still Going Strong After Nearly 30 Years

NASA's twin Voyager spacecraft are beaming back new information about the final frontier of our solar system, including evidence of "potholes" in the turbulent zone near the edge.

A podcast, featuring an interview with Voyager Project Scientist Dr. Ed Stone of Caltech, is online at http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/multimedia/podcast/voyager-20060523/ . The interview includes information about the latest findings, as well as highlights from the past 29 years of the Voyagers' journeys through space.

More information on the Voyager spacecraft is available at http://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/ and www.nasa.gov/voyager .

Voyager 1 and 2 launched in 1977 on a mission to study the outer planets of our solar system, and they are now on their way to becoming the first spacecraft to leave our solar system.
