The identical twin to Voyager 2, Voyager 1, was launched on September 5th 1977. While launched after Voyager 2, it was launched with a more direct trajectory and as a result quickly moved ahead to reach Jupiter in 1979 and Saturn in 1980 with its last major flyby being Saturn’s moon Titan. Voyager 1 would then fly “up” in relation to the orbital plane of the solar system, drifting over the decades taking measurements until 2012, when it began to leave the solar system proper and begin entering interstellar space.
We’re getting ahead of ourselves here, though – this article is just a quick one showing the trajectory it took through, and soon to be completely out of, the solar system. Watch and enjoy, much like the Voyager 2 trajectory video I shared a few days ago.
