    Feb 9, 2024 · The current speeds of Voyager 1 and 2 relative to the Sun are roughly 17 km/s and 15 km/s, respectively. Earth's orbital speed is around 30 km/s, so there are periods each year when the Voyagers have negative speed relative to Earth. Here are some speed graphs for Voyager 1, produced using Horizons data.

    This is a real-time indicator of Voyager 1's distance from Earth in astronomical units (AU) and either miles (mi) or kilometers (km). Note: Because Earth moves around the sun faster than Voyager 1 is speeding away from the inner solar system, the distance between Earth and the spacecraft actually decreases at certain times of year.
