Ending of Sun Laboratories

Launched on August 20, 1977, Voyager 2 was sent to study space and surroundings.Only after 30 years later, Voyager 2 has reached what is known as the termination shock. Sun has consistently spew out particles all directions, like the particles that move into the Sun, they also like the solar wind. The wind is pushed back into the interstellar plasma that existed throughout the Milky Way.
End of the Sun, solar wind finally started to lose direction and kecepatanya down to the speed of sound, and produces a spherical wave is known as an attack from the front.More than 30 years after the launch day, between August 31 and September 1 at the end of the year, Voyager 2 passed a variety of wave attack, and capture the best results from information in the process.
This week's edition of Nature contains a series of five documents, plus a news and discussion about the article, the data sent by the Voyage 2 when passing wave attack.When Voyager 1 crossed the outer regions of space in recent years, from the calculation of telemetry to note an error occurred while sending data to earth, to the Voyager 2 became realistic expectations for the observation of outer space (through the years to come). Since the coverage check slightly different types of size, since the Voyager 2 has the ability of plasma sensors, magnetic field detectors, and a place of other equipment, so it can directly send a lot of data to Earth.
One difference between the observations and data obtained by Voyager 1 that Voyager 1 saw cosmik such anomalies of the light wave approaching, and this is not a peak as it passes through the wave. Voyager 2, on the other writings, see the facts of the anomaly cosmik rays, so this remains a mystery until now.
Voyager 2 has passed through a wave of attacks which illustrates a major advancement to identify geographically from the sun. Since no data is transmitted from Voyager 1, this illustrates only one realistic possibility for humans to get data directly from the region of space for years to come. When may produce effects of the solar wind, in the near future at the heliopause will provide the changes to send back information that is already held. BeritaNET
