The Most Distant Planetary Probes to leave Earth
Lecture in English
Paul Salazar (Munich Public Observatory)
FRIDAY, 6 June 2025, 8 p.m.
Venue: Volkssternwarte (Munich Public Observatory), Rosenheimer Str. 145h, 81671 München
Humans have pushed the frontiers of exploration in space by sending probes to the edge of our Solar System and beyond. Just how far have we traveled, and what have we seen along the way? How do we keep in touch with the most distant objects, and what is left to learn from these probes? We will look at the very old Pioneer and Voyager missions past Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, as well as the New Horizons mission past Pluto and into the Kuiper Belt.
