#Voyager
Que bacana todo o sistema de comunicação com a #Voyager2 ! Em particular, a compensação do Doppler me chamou a atenção, tanto pela precisão, como pela engenhosidade para compensar os problemas na sonda. A separação dos sinais das bandas S e X também me lembra da magia envolvida em guias de onda. https://youtu.be/586Zn1ct-QA

![On 30 August 2007 Voyager 2 began to cross the termination shock, a boundary produced by the inter-action of the Sun with the rest of the Galaxy, where the supersonic solar wind abruptly slows as it presses outward against the surrounding interstellar matter. Five Letters in this issue present the data that the probe sent back. The Voyager 2 crossings occurred about 1.5 billion kilometres closer to the Sun than those of Voyager 1, illustrating the asymmetry of the heliosphere. The results from the plasma experiment [p. 63], low-energy particle [p. 67], cosmic ray [p. 71], magnetic field [p. 75] and plasma-wave detectors [p. 77] reveal a complex and dynamic shock, reforming itself in hours rather than days. It may be decades before another probe crosses the termination shock but remote observations can now bridge the gap - as shown by Wang et al. who report measurements of energetic neutral atoms in the heliosheath from the STEREO A and B spacecraft that complement the Voyager in situ observations made at the same time [Letter p. 81]. In News & Views, Randy Jokipii puts the Voyager findings into context. Meanwhile, Voyagers 1 and 2 head for interstellar space, so may still have more to tell us.

I can't stop my brain from envisioning a #StarTrek #Voyager movie reboot... I keep thinking Scarlett Johansson would make an excellent Janeway.
Hmm... But who else would I #fancast? 🤔
- Gabriel Luna as Chakotay
- Daniel Kaluuya as Tuvok
- Jenna Ortega as B'ellana Torres
- Dacre Montgomery as Tom Paris
- Ben Wang as Harry Kim
- Brandon Perea as Neelix
- Anya Taylor-Joy as Kes
- Zendaya as 7 of 9
- Justice Smith as the Doctor
Here's an interesting article about how project scientists are extending the life of the Voyager 2 space probe.
The headline is clickbait, because there is no power "boost" but rather power management to extend the life of the most important instruments.

I cannot believe -- except that i completely can intellectually -- professionals exist who have been alive the last 25 to 55 years who are self deluded about:
• Just World Presuppositions
• Benevolence in Capitalism
& think internet language compiling "AI" will be used in any other way than to suppress Labor costs and replace prof'ls at Lower Castes so they can consolidate their focus on the Plutocratic Caste.
Its like nobody has seen #Voyager episode Critical Care. https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Critical_Care_(episode)
This show would be different if they had gone with Turok instead of Tuvok.
So I'm a couple of decades late to the #StarTrek #Voyager discourse, but...
Couldn't Janeway have docked Voyager at some M-Class planet rich in whatever resources they needed, used 7 of 9's knowledge of Borg technology to beef up the ship's transwarp capabilities, and get home much faster?
Granted, 7 didn't come along until season 4, and I guess they did end up getting home a lot sooner than the 70 years they estimated...
TBH, I think this is one series that could benefit from a reboot.

When you think about it, #startrek #voyager #Threshold could have effectively ended Voyager early. They had a ship that could go anywhere, but it causes mutations, that the holographic doctor can reverse in a few hours.
Go home and then treat your mutations! Series over
La revista #Astronomía ha tenido a bien publicar en su número de junio esta pequeña reseña sobre el modelo de la sonda #Voyager 1 que desde #Astróbriga hemos instalado en #Salamanca correspondiente al Sistema Solar a escala de #CiudadRodrigo

Gliding through the outer Solar System, in 1989 the #Voyager 2 spacecraft looked toward the Sun to find this view of most distant #planet #Neptune and its moon #Triton together in a crescent phase.
The elegant image of ice-giant planet and largest moon was taken from behind just after Voyager's closest approach. It could not have been taken from Earth because the most distant planet never shows a crescent phase to sunward eyes.

VLA ziet cycloon aan pool van Uranus
Astronomen hebben met behulp van de Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array in New Mexico op verschillende golflengtes een heldere, compacte plek, gecentreerd rond de noordpool van Uranus, waargenomen. Dit kenmerk duidt waarschijnlijk op de aanwezigheid van een polaire cycloon en vertoont overeenkomsten met polaire kenmerken die zijn waargenom

You could have written around this, to make it work, by adjusting aspects of how the Ocampa live to accommodate these details. The problem is they didn’t.
In most respects, Kes acts pretty much the same as any other adult in the show. If anything, more mature than most.
And there are other aliens with far more discernible differences from humans culturally despite being biologically far more similar and with differences that would have less cultural impact
The Ocampa in general were kind of a narrative mistake. They don’t make much sense as a species, a culture or even as characters (as a result of the issues with them as a species and culture).
For example, Kes reminisces nostalgically and distantly about her father, how close they were and how she misses him.
Kes is less than 2 years old. At most, she knew her father for roughly a year, last seeing him mere months earlier
I’m doing a #StarTrekVoyager rewatch. I just got to the episode where Kes’s reproductive process kicks off early.
She explains the process to Neelix and it involves, among other things, holding hands for like 6 days. It’s also a process that can literally only happen once in the ~8 year lifespan of an Ocampa.
My reaction?
“Kes, are you sure mother nature didn’t just WANT the Ocampa to go extinct..?” #StarTrek #Voyager

A couple weeks ago, I went out dancing at the local goth club with a few of my friends to celebrate my birthday. Towards the end of the night as I was getting ready to leave, one said, "Hey, I've got a present for you in my car." So we go to her car, she opens the trunk…
…and there's a cardboard box full of 38 #StarTrek #Voyager novels. (Plus two #Supernatural novels that apparently snuck their way in.)
My friends know me. :)
And since I've been concentrating my book collecting on #TOS and #TNG, and have only lately started picking up books tied to the other shows, nearly all of these are books I didn't have on my shelves already!


New episode posted! We do our best to keep things lighthearted during our discussion of the emotionally intense, surprisingly-Borg-free "Resistance" from #StarTrekVoyager's second season. Available now wherever you pod your casts or at www.itsgotstartrek.com! 🖖

Answering a bit more in general rather than answering each of your questions individually, I generally "discover" artists on Youtube after which I check whether they have presence on (primarily) Spotify. Most of them I either discovered because they were somehow connected to those I already listened to or through the looking for cover versions of songs I know. The Eurovision Song Contest also might lead to me looking up artists, if their "regular" content (not for the contest) is any good.
Artists to check are including, but not limited to, Patty Gurdy, Alina Lesnik, Alina Gingertail, Luxid, Clamavi de Profundis, ALIKA, Voyager, Scardust.

Another great ep of #StarTrek #Voyager and a personal favorite - S5 E12 ‘Bride of Chaotica!’ Tom and Harry’s Buck Rogers holodeck program accidentally sparks a photonic war with aliens from the 5th dimension.
Mulgrew gets to chew the scenery as Arachnia while Picardo relishes his role as President of Earth “My performance was unimpeachable.” A heartfelt love letter to 1930’s movie serials and a true delight. 🕸️🖖

Janeway: He’s not real.
The Doctor: He’s as real as I am.
Photons and force fields — flesh and blood… it’s all the same, as long as your *feelings* are real.
He makes a joke, you laugh. Is that an illusion? He says something that makes you think. Does it matter how his molecules are aligned?

Voyager have announced a new album!
Fearless in Love from Voyager
It's been seven years today since this weird little book came out (this year will also be ten years since it was accepted). It feels good to know it's still puttering away out there, like Voyager itself, and maybe bringing people joy.
I watched #Voyager when I was younger and I think I found Tom Paris cute, but now I just find him insufferable.
Shut the fuck up, you whiny jackass of a failson.

Voyager 2: Reservestrom angezapft, Mission um Jahre verlängert
Als die Voyager-Sonden vor 45 Jahren gestartet wurden, sollten sie vier Jahre funktionieren. Ein Kniff soll das Missionsende nun noch einmal weiter aufschieben.
@Brian_Mahoney i discovered a boom mic in #startrek #Voyager that no one, afaik, has ever noticed before. it gave me a good giggle (at 0:01-0:02)
I always defer to better minds on things like data retention and backup policies, but imho it seems wildly irresponsible that, rather than copying it, #Voyager moves the EMH out of the ship’s computer and onto the mobile transmitter.
Both Voyager probes are powered by radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs), which convert heat from decaying plutonium Pu-238 into electricity using thermocouples. Solar energy cannot be used in probes that go much beyond the orbit of Jupiter.

Power management on the Voyager spacecraft!
Over the 45.6 years since launch, instruments have gradually been shut off as power from the RTG has reduced.
It is almost time for Voyager 2 to shut off another instrument, but NASA engineers have found a way to keep it going for another 2-3 years. A voltage regulator circuit, that keeps the voltage within limits, will be shut off instead.

I love that Tom Morello—noted ST fan—made a cameo in *engineering* of all places on #Voyager s6e20 “Good Shepherd.”
Doubly so considering this episode is about military management. 😂
#Voyager s6e16, “Collective.”
Losing it at how ready Tuvok is to murder Borg children. Practically begging.
Today, April 22, is Ancestor’s Eve, an evening of reflection in honor of those who came before. The holiday was established by Neelix in 2375 and celebrated on board USS Voyager, NCC-74656 (Star Trek: Voyager, s05e23 “11:59”, 1995)
#StarTrek #Voyager #StarTrekVoyager #AncestorsEve #TV #Television
#Voyager s5e18, "Course: Oblivion."
did not expect a Star Trek episode to leave me so shook, but here we are.
I already like that #Voyager has its own version of TNG’s “Darmok” but Lori Petty as the alien guest star? *chefs kiss* incredible 1999 aesthetíque.
We just watched S5E7 „Infinite Regress“ of #StarTrek #Voyager.
How good is this episode? @JeriLRyan is just amazing in displaying all these personalities! 🥰
#Voyager s4e7, we learn that, while the prime directive is paramount, the secondary directive is also important:
"when held in an unwinnable hostage situation, a star fleet officer should load up on dopamine and cut their own brake lines."
Great Star Trek Voyager panel yesterday on with Garrett Wang, Robert Picardo and Ethan Phillips cracking each other and the audience up with funny behind-the-scenes stories. #StarTrek #StarTrekCruise #Voyager
Ich lasse das sonst nicht so raushängen, aber ich bin ein ziemlich eingefleischter #Trekkie. Allerdings fremdele ich mit dem ganzen neumodischen Kram etwas (außer #LowerDecks! Und die ganz frischen Sachen kenne ich zugegeben noch nicht. Eigentlich fremdele ich v.a. mit den aktuelleren Kinofilmen und #Discovery.)
Also jedenfalls kam bei mir bisher nix über #StarTrek #TNG, #DS9 und natürlich #Voyager.
Aber jetzt habe ich endlich die dritte Staffel von #TheOrville gesehen (das Finale noch nicht, also bitte nicht spoilern!) und bin echt geflashed. Diese Serie hat sich von "StarTrek Hommage" zu "besser als StarTrek" entwickelt. Und das innerhalb von weniger als drei Staffeln. Ich hoffe so sehr, dass es weiter geht. Also falls ihr es noch nicht kennt: Dringende Empfehlung. *ThemeSongSummendAb*
@MicroSFF Took me a moment. At first, the punch line didn't make any sense to me, as I was thinking of #StarTrek's "#Voyager" rather than one of #NASA's. 🤦🙈
(Maybe because the ambassador used the name in singular and without "1" or "2". I dunno.) #USSVoyager #misunderstanding
oh I forgot to say I love #StarTrek. I’ve seen every episode of #TNG, #DeepSpaceNine, and #Voyager. Also love #LowerDecks and #Orville.
I watched every night with my parents before bed. Great education. #ImagineTheEndOfCapitalism #SciFi #TV
5/4
Just sayin' #StarTrekPicard S3 is *not* a sequel to #DS9 #Voyager *and* #TNG with every character you've ever wanted (or that *we* wanted) and every favorite ship with a hero feature. That's more than a 10 episode job.
That said, we think it's a great ride with actual cool things to do for our favorites, and this story couldn't happen without the three series leading up to it.
Some websites are really, um, "expanding" on what's been said. Just know we honor what came before.
Doh, I totally forgot I had this #AMA question that I was going to research before posting. (I don’t know if I can just pick 5 eps out of the air.)
Anyone want to share their favorite and/or most hated #StarTrek episodes?
