Rocket launches, eternal nights, vast constellations and endless starry skies accompanied Voyager 1 awaySolar systemEvery bit of the story has brought us endless reverie. As the first probe launched by humans into interstellar space, Voyager 1 witnessedSolar systemA magnificent sight of the inner planets, and towardsAlien civilizationsA friendly greeting was issued. Today, it is flying into the depths of the universe, about 24 billion kilometers away from Earth, speeding at 160 times the distance between Earth and the Sun. However, with the unprecedented feat of mankind comes many difficulties and challenges, the biggest of which is the sudden ** signal of Voyager 1, which makes people speculate whether its significance is a discovery signal or a fault signal.
Regarding the journey of Voyager 1, we can use it to relate to:Solar systemThe meeting of the four planets to get a glimpse of what is going on. Voyager 1's destination is uncertain, but after 46 years of sailing, it has been successfully detectedJupiterSaturnUranuswithNeptuneJupiterHuge cyclones andSaturnThe gorgeous aura,UranuswithNeptuneThe deep and mysterious blue color has become a unique scenery behind the memory of Voyager 1. And the record carried by Voyager 1 is also toAlien civilizationsIt showcases the rich and colorful culture of humanity and tries to establish friendly ties across the stars.
However, compared to its illustrious mission, Voyager 1's own equipment and functions were short-lived, with a set lifespan of only 5 years. Although its power supply is only enough until about 2025, multiple instruments have failed or shut down, the communication speed is only 160 bits per second, and the signal strength is even worseMicrowave, but under these conditions, it still maintains a weak connection with the Earth. It relies only on a diameter of 37 metersHigh-gain antennasand deep space network stations on Earth in order to send and receive signals. The communication frequencies of this high frequency band have little interferenceSignal-to-noise ratioVery high, long-distance radio signals can be easily captured by receivers on Earth. However, due to the huge amount of data brought by Voyager 1, coupled with the very limited storage and processing capacity, communication and data processing have also become availableScienceThe number one problem for families.
Just on November 14, 2023, Voyager 1 suddenly began to start with "1,0,1,0....The **signal is reversed**. This strange phenomenon immediately caused NASAScienceand launched an investigation into Voyager 1. However, this set of ** is too simple and extremely difficult to decipher. ScienceFamilies speculate that this may be due to a malfunction in Voyager 1's flight data system, which prevented the probe from working properly. To solve this problem, they immediately sent instructions to the probe to restart the flight data system, trying to restore the normal function of Voyager 1.
However, in the face of this challenge,ScienceThe family also faced many difficulties. First of all, due toThe speed of lightThe limit they have to wait for 22It takes 5 hours to receive a signal sent from Earth to the probe and back. Secondly, since Voyager 1 has been flying for more than a few decadesScienceThey had to rely on the original detector manuals written at the time for debugging and restoration. However, the authors of these manuals never imagined that the probe would be able to fly for so long, nor could they have predicted that it would encounter so many complex problems. Thirdly, the probe experienced a long flight andSpaceExtreme temperatures, radiation and microscopic impacts of the environment, many components have been irreversibly damaged and deteriorated. Even if they managed to solve the problem of ** sending, the Voyager 1 carriedScienceThe instrument will also be in 2025 becauseElectricityInsufficient to stop working, leaving only the signal transmission device to work silently until around 2036, and then lose contact with the Earth forever.
In the face of the ** signal sent back by Voyager 1, as well as other difficulties and challenges,ScienceFamilies make every effort to find a solution. However, at the moment they still don't know anything about the significance of this group of **. Perhaps this set of ** is just a signal of failure in the Voyager 1 flight data system, or maybe it is a new discovery signal, or maybe Voyager 1 has encountered some other unknown situation. Anyway,ScienceWe will continue to explore and work hard to solve this problem.
Regardless of the fate of Voyager 1, it will be a milestone in humanity's exploration of the universe, which is breathtaking. After all, it has left what we are familiar withSolar system, into the unknown and distant interstellar space. It can become withAlien civilizationsThe bridge of communication can also disappear lonely into the depths of the universe. Everything about Voyager 1 is still unknown, and everything is possible. We can only wait and see where it will go and what surprises it will bring us. No matter how it ends, Voyager 1 has become the power of our ** universe, it bravely flies to the unknown, whether its mission has been completed or a new unknown world has reappeared, it is worthy of our admiration and remembrance.
In short, Voyager 1, as the first probe to enter interstellar space, witnessedSolar systemThe magnificent sight of the inner planets has made a great contribution to mankind's exploration of the mysteries of the universe. Despite all the difficulties and challenges, Voyager 1 insisted on sending a strange series of ** to Earth, making people look forward to its meaning. Regardless of the final outcome, Voyager 1's mission has exceeded humanity's initial expectations. Its story is destined to become an epic of mankind's exploration of the universe and will remain in the memory of mankind forever.
