Ukusibeka emxholweni kancinci, ngaphambi kokuya kwiinkcukacha, ndingathanda ukuthetha nge Uhambo 1, Ngokwenyani into eyenziwe ngumntu oye wakwazi ukuhamba umgama omde kwimbali. Sithetha ngokwenyani malunga nenkqubo yokuba namhlanje ibekwe kwindawo ebekwe malunga nayo Iikhilomitha ezingama-21.000 ezigidi kude noMhlaba, nto leyo ethetha ukuba esi sixhobo ngaphandle kwenkqubo yelanga.
Ukuya kwiinkcukacha ezithe kratya malunga neempawu zeprojekthi, ndikuxelele yaqaliswa esithubeni ngo-1977 njengenxalenye yenye yezo zobuqaqawuli kwaye, namhlanje, sele zindala iimishini ze NASA. Uluvo olwalukho emva kokudalwa kweVoyager 1 yayingenguye omnye koko ukulawula ukufumana nokufunda imida yesixokelelwano selanga, ngokufanayo, emva kwi-2014, kwafunyaniswa ukuba ukwazile ukuhamba ngaphandle kwemida yokumakisha yendawo, ummandla owela ngaphaya kwePluto.
Ukulandela imigaqo eyakhiwe ngayo iVoyager 1 ngelo xesha, sithetha ngomatshini oxhotyiswe nge- ibhetri yeplutonium Oko kuthetha ukuba ithiyori kufuneka iqhubeke nokusebenza kude kube ngu-2025, ngela xesha iyakuyeka ukuthumela idatha. Njengeenkcukacha, ngelo xesha lalinikwe iidiski zegolide ezazinezandi kunye nemifanekiso yobomi eMhlabeni, njengoko kwakulindelwe, ukuze, xa kuthe kwabanjwa okanye kwafunyanwa uhlobo oluthile lobomi, babenokubona ukuba kukho ubomi obunengqondo Emhlabeni.
IVoyager 1 yayiyimishini eyenziwe yiNASA apho iarhente yeza nombono wokufunda ukufikelela kwangaphandle kwenkqubo yelanga
Enye ye Amanqaku amabi yemishini siyifumana kwisikhundla sokuba izazinzulu kunye neenjineli ezinxulumene neprojekthi zazinokunxibelelana kwaye zikwazi ukunxibelelana noVoyager 1, kokukhona uphando lwaluhambile, isidingo sokusebenza ngezixhobo ezinamandla ngakumbi nezifanelekileyo zonxibelelwano. ngayo yaba yimfuneko nangakumbi. Le ngxaki ikhokelele kwinto yokuba inyani ukusukela ngo-1980 ii-thrusters zayo ezine zazingasebenzi, ngakumbi abo bajongene nokulungiswa kwendlela. Emva kwalo lonke eli xesha, njengoko kuchaziwe yiNASA uqobo, iinjineli zabo zikwazile ukuzisebenzisa kwaye, ukongeza, baye bakwazi ukuqinisekisa ukuba basebenza ngokugqibeleleyo.
Eli nyathelo lenziwa ngolwe-Lwesibini odlulileyo, ngelo xesha umqondiso wophando lwendawo wasungulwa kwi-NASA. Khawufane ucinge into enokuba ihamba kwiintloko zabo bonke abo banoxanduva abasebenza kule projekthi yembali ngelixa belinde into engaphantsi Iiyure ezi-19 kunye nemizuzu engama-35 de loo myalezo wafikelela kwiprobe nakwezinye Iiyure ezi-19 kunye nemizuzu engama-35 Kude kube kunokwenzeka ukubamba umyalezo wokuqinisekisa othunyelwe yinkqubo yokuhlola oqinisekisa oko ii-thrusters zazenziwe zasebenza kwi-pulses ye-10 milliseconds.
Enkosi kusebenze kwe-trajectory correction thrusters, iVoyager 1 iya kuba nakho ukuqhubeka nokuhamba eminye iminyaka emi-2-3.
Njengoko kubonisiwe Umchebi weTodd, enye yeenjineli ezisasebenza kule projekthi ye-NASA, loo mzuzu wawumchulumancisa yena nabo bonke abo wayesebenza nabo, kwiminyaka eyadlulayo, IVoyager 1 ithembele ngqo kwiziseko zayo eziphambili zolungelelwaniso olufanelekileyo kwaye ke sikwazi ukuqhubeka nokunxibelelana noMhlaba. Emva kwayo yonke le minyaka, njengoko kusengqiqweni kwaye kufanelekile, ezi-injini ziye zalahleka ngokukuko.
Enkosi kusebenze kwe-trajectory correction thrusters, ethi khange isetyenziswe ngaphezulu kweminyaka engama-37Ngokukodwa xa iphenyo ifikelele kuSaturn, iya kuthi Yandisa ubomi beVoyager 1 kwiminyaka emibini ukuya kwemithathu Phambi kokuba umbane we-radioisotope we-thermoelectric ekugqibeleni ungabinakho ukuvelisa amandla aneleyo ukuba iprojekhthi iqhubeke nomsebenzi wayo wasithuba.
