2018 Fall Meeting

10-15 December

In 2012, NASA's Voyager 1 left the heliosphere – the giant bubble surrounding the Sun filled by its constant outpouring of solar wind — and entered interstellar space. Voyager 2, launched two weeks before its twin in 1977, but followed a different, longer path toward that boundary. Along the way, Voyager 2 has been providing scientists with unprecedented observations on the nature of the space it's traveling through, with an instrument that stopped working on Voyager 1 while still inside the heliosphere. In this briefing, scientists share current observations from Voyager 2 as it continues its epic journey.
