1 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:06,190 Voyager 1 is in a place no spacecraft 2 00:00:10,180 --> 00:00:07,970 has ever been before we are in the very 3 00:00:11,919 --> 00:00:10,190 outer edge of the heliosphere one 4 00:00:14,650 --> 00:00:11,929 magnetic field lines which act like a 5 00:00:16,330 --> 00:00:14,660 huge highway so that all the particles 6 00:00:18,790 --> 00:00:16,340 that were inside the heliosphere have 7 00:00:20,980 --> 00:00:18,800 streamed away and are now gone and what 8 00:00:23,110 --> 00:00:20,990 we see instead are the cosmic rays from 9 00:00:25,110 --> 00:00:23,120 the outside interstellar space which 10 00:00:28,180 --> 00:00:25,120 have streamed back in to replace them 11 00:00:29,890 --> 00:00:28,190 for the last seven years Voyager 1 has 12 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:29,900 been in a region of the outer 13 00:00:34,060 --> 00:00:31,970 heliosphere where it's surrounded by PI 14 00:00:35,950 --> 00:00:34,070 ins moving at about a few percent the 15 00:00:38,619 --> 00:00:35,960 speed of light those ions were 16 00:00:41,319 --> 00:00:38,629 accelerated in this region and are 17 00:00:44,110 --> 00:00:41,329 moving uniformly in all directions as 18 00:00:46,299 --> 00:00:44,120 Voyager 1 continued though it began to 19 00:00:48,759 --> 00:00:46,309 see a change in that distribution and 20 00:00:51,549 --> 00:00:48,769 entered a magnetic highway where all the 21 00:00:53,950 --> 00:00:51,559 pink colored ions were leaving the 22 00:00:56,500 --> 00:00:53,960 heliosphere along the magnetic field and 23 00:00:58,119 --> 00:00:56,510 at the same time they blew ions which 24 00:01:00,430 --> 00:00:58,129 are the cosmic rays particles moving 25 00:01:03,430 --> 00:01:00,440 with a higher speed started coming in 26 00:01:05,170 --> 00:01:03,440 from interstellar space Voyager 1 is now 27 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:05,180 in a region where it's surrounded only
