Voyager 2’s heartbeat signal

Heartbeat signal – A scientific wonder NASA’s distant Voyager 2 probe has sent a signal to Earth after mission control mistakenly cut contact. Curiously Voyager 2 was launched in 1977 to explore the outer planets and serve as a beacon of humanity to the wider universe. It is currently more than 12.3 billion miles from mother Earth and well beyond the solar system. An inadvertent mistake rendered Voyager 2 unable to transmit data or receive commands to its mission control but after help was enlisted of an international array of giant radio antennas and surprisingly the spacecraft responded by transmitting a signal. Voyager 1 was mankind’s first spacecraft to enter the interstellar medium, in 2012 and is currently almost 15 billion miles from Earth.Voyager 2 left protective magnetic bubble provided by the Sunin December 2018 and is currently traveling through the space between the stars. Before leaving the Earth’s solar system, it explored Jupiter and Saturn and became the first spacecraft to visit Uranus and Neptune. Both Voyager spacecraft carry Golden Records — 12-inch, gold-plated copper disks intended to convey the Earth’s storyto extra-terrestrials including a map of solar system, a uranium radioactive clock allowing recipients to date the spaceship’s launch and symbolic instructions that convey how to play the record.
