The primary mission of Voyager 1 and 2 was the exploration of Jupiter and Saturn; after completing this objective, Voyager 1 and 2’s missions were extended. The Voyager Interstellar Mission will explore the limits of the Sun’s influence at the edge of the solar system and beyond. Penetration of the heliopause boundary between the solar wind and the interstellar medium will allow measurements to be made of the interstellar fields, particles, and waves unaffected by the solar wind.
