Voyager 1 Crew Accomplishes Tricky Thruster Swap

.Each Voyager probes feature three collections, or even divisions, of thrusters: two collections of attitude propulsion thrusters as well as one set of trajectory correction procedure thrusters. During the goal's planetal flybys, each types of thrusters were actually used for different reasons. However as Voyager 1 travels on a constant path out of the solar system, its thruster needs are actually simpler, and also either thruster division could be used to point the spacecraft at The planet.
