The Voyager-1 spacecraft is the most distant from us an artificial object that is supposed to leave sphere of solar influence. Recently, an international team of scientists conducted an analysis of data from the spacecraft Voyager 1 over the past few months.
A photo from open sources Since 2010, Voyager 1 has been located in areas of the so-called heliochemis – areas of space where power the solar wind drops to almost zero, and the magnetic field begins shrink and fluctuate. According to theory, in this zone the quantity particles of high-energy cosmic rays should decrease so how this radiation should be scattered by fluctuations of the magnetic field. In fact, recent data have shown an increase the amount of high-energy particles recorded by the apparatus. Scientists attribute this to the fact that fluctuations in the magnetic field could charge particles inside helioscopy, thus increasing the number of registered particles with high energy. But if so, then perhaps Voyager 1 is already has long been beyond the borders of the solar system? Let’s not wait a long time for official confirmation, but just look at the graph shown in the figure above.
