Launched in 1977 to study Jupiter and Saturn, Voyager 1 has been exploring interstellar space — the space between star systems — since 2012 but it stopped sending
The sound is like a single tone that, over time, changes. The way the frequency moves around as Voyager 1 travels further can tell researchers how the density of the interstellar medium is changing. The hum could also help researchers understand the density of the space between stars. There has never been an opportunity to track and evaluate this kind of data. Cornell research scientist Shami Chatterjee, who co-authored a study on the new sound with Ocker, described the data as the spacecraft saying: “Here’s the density I’m swimming through right now. And here it is now. And here ...

NASA's Voyager 1 Space Probe Detects 'Persistent Hum' 14 Billion Miles From Earth The sound picked up by NASA could be a result of oscillating plasma waves.

NASA launched the Voyager 1 space probe 44 years ago and today it is the most distant human-made object from Earth, after exiti...
NASA/JPL-Caltech NASA's Voyager 1 probe has detected a faint, constant hum in the space beyond our solar system. When charged gas ripples through interstellar space, those ripples emit a detectable vibration. The Voyager 1 spacecraft left Earth more than 40 years ago and entered interstellar space in 2012. More than 14 billion miles from Earth, NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft is listening to the background music of interstellar space. The probe, which launched more than 40 years ago, exited our solar system in 2012. Five years after its interstellar foray began, Voya...
