Measurements of different populations of charged particles by Voyager 1 › Full image and caption

Burlaga - 1

This artist's concept shows the different expected directions of the magnetic fields in interstellar space (black lines) and the magnetic field emanating from our sun (white lines). › Full image and caption

Burlaga - 2

This graphic, made from data obtained by NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft, tracks the behavior of the sun's magnetic field and a population of charged particles as the spacecraft moved in and out of a new region scientists are calling the 'magnetic freeway.' › Full image and caption

Burlaga - 3

This graphic shows how the direction of the magnetic field in the region NASA's Voyager 1 is exploring has not changed, even though the intensity of the magnetic field has increased. › Full image and caption
