Hello my dear friends, greetings to everyone. I hope you are well. Today I want to share a piece of news that really makes your head spin. Today news comes from far away in space, you will be surprised to hear it.

Almost half a century ago, a small spacecraft named Voyager-1 was sent into space. Its initial task was to take pictures of the large planets of the solar system. It delivered extraordinary pictures of Jupiter and Saturn to us. But this device did not stop there. It went billions of miles away from Earth and saw something that changed all the ideas of scientists.

That place is called the “Wall of Fire”. When you hear the name, it seems like a firestorm is blowing, but in reality it is different. Here, many small particles are running at such a speed that they are generating tremendous heat. You will be surprised to hear that the temperature is about 30,000° Celsius! However, this heat does not burn like fire, rather, the speed of the particles is the real source of this heat.

This region is actually the heliopause, the point where the Sun’s influence ends and interstellar space begins. Scientists thought it would be cold and lifeless, but Voyager 1 showed that the opposite is true.

Even more surprising is that everyone thought that the magnetic fields of the solar system and interstellar space would be separate. But it turned out that they were actually mixing with each other, creating a new stream of energy.

The most amazing thing is that a spacecraft built with such low power—which requires only a few watts of electricity for each instrument to operate, is still sending us messages. After all these years, there is life inside it, and this proves how powerful human persistence and curiosity can be.
