NASA Reconnects with Voyager, Longest Serving Mission in History
The space agency says the Voyagers are studying how the interstellar medium interacts with the solar wind.

Solar wind is the continuous flow of charged particles released by the sun.

The spacecraft have also provided data on the heliosphere, a kind of protective bubble around our solar system.

She recently said in a statement the agency has no plans to retire the two Voyagers as long as they are communicating with mission members back on Earth.

Dodd said the spacecraft are currently centered on observing how interstellar space and the heliosphere interact with each other.

"We wouldn't be doing Voyager if it wasn't taking science data," she added.

Dodd noted one reason the Voyagers have been operating for so long is that the engineers who built them provided multiple backup systems to avoid future problems.

She said some who worked on Voyager in its earliest days have even come back from retirement to pass on knowledge to the next generation of scientists and engineers.

"From where I sit as a project manager, it's really very exciting to see young engineers be excited to work on Voyager,” Dodd said.

“To take on the challenges of an old mission and to work side by side with some of the masters the people that built the spacecraft they want to learn from each other."

NASA Rocket Confirms Existence of Earth’s Hidden Electric Field
The American space agency NASA says it has confirmed the long-suspected existence of an electric field that surrounds Earth.

NASA Rocket Confirms Existence of Earth’s Hidden Electric Field
A rocket named Endurance gathered the information that led to the confirmation. Endurance launched from Norway on May 11, 2022.

The launch site was the closest possible to the North Pole. Endurance reached a top altitude of 768 kilometers.

The rocket captured data on the electric field during its 19-minute flight before splashing down in the sea, off the coast of Greenland.

NASA Rocket Confirms Existence of Earth’s Hidden Electric Field
NASA says that since the 1960s, spacecraft flying over Earth’s poles have recorded collections of particles flowing from the planet’s

atmosphere into space. But the cause of these outflows long remained a mystery.

NASA Rocket Confirms Existence of Earth’s Hidden Electric Field
Scientists lacked the technology and tools to confirm an electric field and further explore it.

But the development in recent years of new observation methods and instruments led NASA to plan the Endurance mission.

So the agency built the rocket and a new data instrument and planned the launch.

NASA Rocket Confirms Existence of Earth’s Hidden Electric Field
Collinson explains in a video that scientists believe the electric field they searched for was one of three energy fields affecting Earth.
- Public domaingeneral-american

The others are gravitational and magnetic. Scientists are calling the third energy field the “ambipolar electric field.”
- Public domaingeneral-american
NASA Rocket Confirms Existence of Earth’s Hidden Electric Field
A NASA statement says scientists believe the ambipolar field is an influential driver of the “polar wind.”
- Public domaingeneral-american

They described the wind as “a steady outflow of charged particles into space that occurs above Earth’s poles.”

Scientists believe the ambipolar electric field counteracts some of the effects of gravity.
