This is the story of the most ex­tra­or­di­nary jour­ney in hu­man ex­plo­ration, the Voy­ager space mis­sion. In 1977 two un­manned space­craft were launched by NASA, head­ing for dis­tant worlds. It would be the first time any man-made ob­ject would ever visit the far­thest plan­ets of the so­lar sys­tem - Jupiter, Sat­urn, Nep­tune and Uranus. On the way the Voy­agers would be bom­barded by space dust, fried by ra­di­a­tion and dis­cover many of the re­mark­able won­ders of the so­lar sys­tem.
