Voyager 1 Group Accomplishes Tricky Thruster Swap

.Each Voyager probings include three collections, or branches, of thrusters: pair of collections of perspective power thrusters as well as one collection of trail adjustment maneuver thrusters. During the course of the purpose's worldly flybys, both sorts of thrusters were actually made use of for various functions. However as Voyager 1 travels on an unchanged course away from the planetary system, its own thruster necessities are simpler, as well as either thruster division may be made use of to direct the space probe at Earth.
