Code for Thought

[EN] Sounds from outer space - the Voyager Programme - with Bill Kurth

06 Oct 2025

Description

English Edition: My guest Bill Kurth and I will go on a space exploration of a special kind: the Voyager probes. Launched in 1977 just a few weeks apart they have now reached interstellar space. Some of the data they send back to Earth are audio - which can tell us a lot about the outer planets like Jupiter or indeed interstellar space, where both Voyagers are now. Linkshttps://science.nasa.gov/mission/voyager/ https://science.jpl.nasa.gov/projects/voyager/https://doi.org/10.1038/s41550-021-01363-7 a paper on persistent plasma waves in interstellar space https://science.nasa.gov/blogs/voyager/2025/05/14/nasas-voyager-1-revives-backup-thrusters-before-command-pause/ reviving Voyager's thrusters https://space-audio.org some of the sounds we heard during the episode (Uni. of Iowa/US)https://www.sleepbot.com/ambience/album/planets.html Symphonies of the Planets old homepagehttps://www.nasa.gov/communicating-with-missions/dsn/ The Deep Space NetworkGet in touchThank you for listening!
