* 1989 – Voyager 2 spacecraft makes its closest approach to Neptune, the second to last planet in the Solar System at the time.

Druyan was responsible for the selection of the music on the Voyager Golden Record for the pioneering exploratory missions of the Solar System — Voyager 1 and Voyager 2.

Two other satellites made observations at the time of the impact: the Ulysses spacecraft, primarily designed for solar observations, was pointed towards Jupiter from its location 2. 6 AU away, and the distant Voyager 2 probe, some 44 AU from Jupiter and on its way out of the Solar System following its encounter with Neptune in 1989, was programmed to look for radio emission in the 1 – 390 kHz range.

For example in 1979 The Voyager 1 and The Voyager 2 spotted 9 erupting volcanoes while passing Io.

The four most distant spacecraft ( Pioneer 10, Pioneer 11, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 ) are on course to leave the Solar System.

* 1986 – Voyager 2 passes within of Uranus.

The planned Mariner 11 and Mariner 12 vehicles evolved into Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 of the Voyager program, while the Viking 1 and Viking 2 Mars orbiters were enlarged versions of the Mariner 9 spacecraft.

The Voyager program launched Voyager 1 and Voyager 2.

At the launch of OS / 2 Warp in 1994, Patrick Stewart was to be the Master of Ceremonies ; however Kate Mulgrew of the then-upcoming series Star Trek: Voyager was substituted at the last minute.

The search was largely abandoned in the early 1990s, when a study of measurements made by the Voyager 2 spacecraft found that the irregularities observed in Uranus's orbit were due to a slight overestimation of Neptune's mass.

The camera system was designed to obtain images of Jupiter's satellites at resolutions from 20 to 1, 000 times better than Voyager's best, because Galileo flew closer to the planet and its inner moons, and because the more modern CCD sensor in Galileos camera was more sensitive and had a broader color detection band than the vidicons of Voyager.

Views of Saturn from the space station inhabited by the character Caroline Holmes in this section were inspired by images of Saturn taken during the Voyager flybys.

* 1980 – The NASA space probe Voyager I makes its closest approach to Saturn and takes the first images of its rings.

Neptune's rings are very unusual in that they first appeared to be composed of incomplete arcs in Earth-based observations, but Voyager 2's images showed them to be complete rings with bright clumps.

* November 10 – November 12 – Voyager program: The NASA space probe Voyager I makes its closest approach to Saturn, when it flies within 77, 000 miles of the planet's cloud-tops and sends the first high resolution images of the world back to scientists on Earth.

* A photograph of White performing his Gemini 4 space walk is included as one of several images on the Voyager Golden Record.

It was discovered in 1979 in images taken by Voyager 1, and was named in 1983 after the first wife of Zeus, Metis.

Metis was discovered in 1979 by Stephen P. Synnott in images taken by the Voyager 1 probe and was provisionally designated as.

In 1979 – 1980, the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft made the first images of Amalthea, which resolved its surface.

Puck — the largest inner moon of Uranus — was discovered from the images taken by Voyager 2 on 30 December 1985.

* 1980 – Voyager 1 flies by Saturn and takes the first images of Titan.

* 1986 – Voyager 2 provides the first ever detailed images of Uranus, its moons and rings.

* 1989 – Voyager 2 provides the first ever detailed images of Neptune, its moons and rings.

* 1979-- Jupiter-Success-Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 send back images of Jupiter and its system

The first images of Rhea were obtained by Voyager 1 & 2 spacecraft in 1980 – 1981.

The Uranian system has been studied up close only once: the spacecraft Voyager 2 took several images of Oberon in January 1986, allowing 40 % of the moon's surface to be mapped.

A peak with a height of about 11 km was observed in some Voyager images near the south-eastern limb of Oberon, which may be the central peak of a large impact basin with a diameter of about 375 km.

It was discovered from the images taken by Voyager 2 on January 20, 1986, and was given the temporary designation S / 1986 U 7.

It was discovered from the images taken by Voyager 2 on January 20, 1986, and was given the temporary designation S / 1986 U 8.

At the Voyager 2 images Ophelia appears as an elongated object, the major axis pointing towards Uranus.

It was discovered from the images taken by Voyager 2 on January 23, 1986, and was given the temporary designation S / 1986 U 9.

However, in 1986 Voyager 2 discovered only one such shepherd pair ( Cordelia and Ophelia ) around the brightest ring ( ε ).

At this point she appears much older, is much more powerful, and is vengeful towards the Voyager crew.

Robert Picardo appears as the Enterprises Emergency Medical Hologram ; Picardo played the holographic Doctor in Voyager.

Q is a fictional character who appears in the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Voyager, as well as in related products.

In the episode " Q2 ", which is the last televised appearance of Q, Q appears on Voyager with his immature, rebellious son, who appears as a human teenager ( played by John de Lancie's real-life son Keegan de Lancie, and referred to in the novels as " Little Q " or " q ").

At the Voyager 2 images Bianca appears as an elongated object, the major axis pointing towards Uranus.

At the Voyager 2 images Cressida appears as an elongated object, the major axis pointing towards Uranus.

At the Voyager 2 images Desdemona appears as an elongated object, the major axis pointing towards Uranus.

At the Voyager 2 images Juliet appears as an elongated object, the major axis pointing towards Uranus.

In the Voyager 2 images Rosalind appears as an almost spherical object.

In all, it appears in eleven Voyager 2 images.

He is the only Voyager character whose Mirror counterpart appears onscreen.

Barclay appears as a guest character in Voyager.

In the regular universe Trek novels, Barclay appears in the relaunch storyline of Star Trek: Voyager.

Although not an actual initial design in the real-world, one of the in-universe designs for the Defiant appears, somewhat modified, as the Nova-class USS Equinox in the Star Trek: Voyager episode " Equinox ".

Portrayed by George Takei in the original Star Trek series, Sulu also appears in the animated Star Trek series, the first six Star Trek movies, one episode of Star Trek: Voyager, and in numerous books, comics, and video games.

Based on observations taken by Voyager and since then with the Hubble Space Telescope, Neptune appears to spend somewhat more than half its time with a Great Dark Spot.

In 1985, a year after the introduction of the Plymouth Voyager and the Dodge Caravan, the family appears in a series of cartoons trading in the station wagon for a new minivan ( when the salesman assures Mom and Dad that " Lee Iaccoca stands behind every vehicle we sell ," the children scuttle around and look behind the van to see if Mr. Iaccoca is back there ).

A D7-class ship also appears in the Voyager episode " Prophecy "; however, as a CGI model of Jein's model was not available, the ship was instead portrayed with a CGI model of the K't ' inga-class battlecruiser.

In the Voyager 2 images, Portia appears as an elongated object whose major axis points towards Uranus.

When combined ( although not complete as the assumed third survivor is never located ), the message appears to be reciting of the message from the United Nations Secretary General that had been included on a special recording sent with the Voyager space probes.

She subsequently appears in several Star Trek films and in an episode of Star Trek: Voyager.

She first appears to the Queen in her mind, claiming she wants Voyager towed back to the Alpha Quadrant ( apparently in defiance of the younger Janeway's plans ) in exchange for information on how to adapt to the armour and torpedo technologies.
