Voyager 1's low-energy charged particle instrument due for shutdown

node

The March 2025 JPL release stated that Voyager 1's low-energy charged particle instrument would operate through the remainder of 2025 and be switched off in 2026. This record states the announced plan; whether the shutdown had been executed by August 2026 was not confirmed in this production run, and the current NASA instrument status table should be consulted before the record is published as history.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
