Voyager 1 Group Accomplishes Tricky Thruster Swap

.Both Voyager probings include 3 sets, or even branches, of thrusters: two sets of perspective propulsion thrusters and also one set of path adjustment maneuver thrusters. During the course of the goal's worldly flybys, both forms of thrusters were actually made use of for various purposes. However as Voyager 1 takes a trip on a constant path away from the planetary system, its own thruster needs are less complex, as well as either thruster branch could be used to aim the space capsule at Earth.
