How do spacecrafts like Voyager 1 and 2 transmit pictures of space back to Earth? How do they receive flight instructions from such a long distance from earth?

1 Answer

Voyager 1 is about 134.38 AU from Earth and voyager 2 is 111.04 AU from earth.now.

Explanation:

Voyagers were provided with thermo electric power source (Plutonium). as there will not be enough sun light.
They are going away fro m us and unless some thing stops them it will continue to move in the same direction(Newtons law).
NASA is getting faint signals from them.Not photographs..
Even if we give signals there is no fuel left to change its course.
They have crossed the solar system and they provided the data about the solar wind in that area.
