Computer art of Voyager spacecraft passing planet
Voyager spacecraft fly-by. Computer artwork depicting a Voyager spacecraft passing by an orange alien planet. Blurring of the image gives the effect of speed. The spacecraft has a main dish-antenna (circular), a boom at right which supports imaging equipment, and a boom pointing towards the planet which carries a small magnetometer probe. Two Voyager spacecraft were launched in 1977 with a mission to survey the outer planets of our Solar System. This mission continued for 12 years, the final planetary encounter being Voyager 2s fly-by of Neptune in August 1989. Both spacecraft are still being tracked out of our Solar System

EDITORS COMMENTS
This computer artwork showcases the iconic Voyager spacecraft as it zooms past a mesmerizing orange alien planet. The blurring effect masterfully captures the essence of speed, immersing viewers in the thrilling journey through space. The Voyager spacecraft, depicted here with its circular main dish-antenna and supporting imaging equipment boom, embarked on an extraordinary interstellar mission in 1977. Launched to explore the outer planets of our Solar System, these two pioneering vessels spent an impressive 12 years gathering invaluable data and unraveling celestial mysteries. As we gaze at this abstract masterpiece, we are reminded of the groundbreaking research and exploration conducted by these remarkable machines. Their final planetary encounter occurred when Voyager 2 gracefully flew by Neptune in August 1989, marking a historic milestone in human space exploration. Despite their primary mission coming to an end decades ago, both Voyagers continue to be tracked as they venture beyond our Solar System's boundaries. This awe-inspiring artwork not only celebrates their incredible achievements but also serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity about what lies beyond our own cosmic neighborhood. This stunning computer graphic is a true fusion of art and science—a visual representation that sparks wonder and ignites imagination. It invites us to ponder the vastness of space while appreciating the beauty inherent in scientific discovery.
