"NASA Scientist's Chilling Encounter with Jupiter's Volcano Moon"

NASA scientist Alan Cummings recalls the "chills" he felt when he first saw images of Jupiter's moon Io from the Voyager spacecraft in 1979, marking a pivotal moment in space exploration. Despite being billions of miles away, the Voyager missions have provided groundbreaking insights into our solar system, capturing images of volcanic activity on Io, Jupiter's atmosphere, Saturn's rings, and more. Now, almost 50 years later, the aging spacecraft are still sending back valuable data from interstellar space, with hopes of keeping the instruments operational for a few more years.
