Voyager 1 Team Accomplishes Tricky Thruster Swap

.Each Voyager probes feature 3 collections, or even branches, of thrusters: two collections of attitude power thrusters and one collection of path correction procedure thrusters. In the course of the objective's planetary flybys, each forms of thrusters were made use of for various functions. Yet as Voyager 1 takes a trip on an unvarying pathway out of the planetary system, its own thruster necessities are easier, and either thruster branch could be made use of to aim the space probe at Planet.
