How Did Voyager 2 Become the Third Spacecraft to Leave the Solar System?

💡 The Answer

• Voyager 2 achieved Solar escape velocity, allowing it to break free of the Sun's gravity.
• It is the third of only five spacecraft to ever accomplish this feat.
• The spacecraft's trajectory gave it enough speed to exit the Solar System.
• Though launched after Voyager 1, it reached interstellar space years later due to its path.
• This achievement enabled its extended mission to study interstellar space.
