The 2023 Voyager Standoff

A few days ago, NASA shut off one of Voyager 1’s instruments so that the farthest man-made object in space could continue its historic mission. 

We thought in all this excitement that it was important to remind readers of Voyager 1’s sister craft, Voyager 2, and its controversial history. Below is the wikipedia article for Voyager 2 that was omitted from Rook, the book.

The 2023 Voyager Standoff


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the hostage crisis that erupted in 2023 among the engineers tasked with monitoring the Voyager space probes. For the minivan of the same name, see Chrysler Voyager.

Background


Voyager 2

In 1977, NASA launched two space probes, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, in order to explore interstellar space and the stars. The two probes were each fitted with a “Golden Record” that contained the most important information about humanity at the time. Included were pictures of animals and geography, music from many genres, and a DNA sample from disgraced U.S. President Richard Nixon. NASA’s intent was for this “message in a bottle” to travel through space and eventually be found by intelligent lifeforms, thus ensuring the future of humanity’s survival in the cosmos. Simply put, it was one of the most forward thinking, selfless efforts ever accomplished by humans.
