Antigua is the larger of the two main islands that make up Antigua and Barbuda . It is a beautiful getaway and many tourists enjoy the really energetic island culture but also the peace and tranquility that the surrounding seas bring.

Cities [ edit ]

  • 17.116667 -61.85 1 Saint John's — The capital of Antigua and Barbuda , also the largest city on the island.

Other destinations [ edit ]

voyage antiguo

  • 17 -61.766667 1 English Harbour
  • 17.016667 -61.783333 2 Falmouth was the original British settlement on the island.
  • 17.0528 -61.6991 3 Freetown — a village of 600 people with a beach called Half Moon Bay, which includes views of pink-sand coasts and landscapes.

Understand [ edit ]

Since gaining independence from the UK in 1981, Antigua has built itself up as a tourist hotspot, and rivals St Barts, Barbados and Jamaica in the Caribbean.

Talk [ edit ]

English is spoken everywhere on the island, along with local dialects.

Get in [ edit ]

By air [ edit ].

17.136667 -61.793056 1 V. C. Bird International Airport ( ANU  IATA ) is situated on the outskirts of St John's and to the north of the island. It has regular flights from UK and America, along with smaller planes from elsewhere in the region. It is a fully functioning airport with Wi-fi capabilities.

The following international airlines serve the airport:

Caribbean Airlines (from Kingston, Barbados, Trinidad)

From the US: American Airlines/American Eagle (Charlotte, NC; San Juan, Puerto Rico), Delta Air Lines (Atlanta), United Airlines (Newark, NJ), JetBlue (New York-JFK)

From Canada: Air Canada (Toronto), Antigua Airways (Toronto)

From Europe: British Airways (London Gatwick), Condor (Frankfurt, Germany), Virgin Atlantic (London Gatwick)

From Africa: Antigua Airways (Lagos, Accra)

By cruise ship [ edit ]

Many tourists come to Antigua and Barbuda via cruise ships. On Antigua, passengers enjoy a short walk through Heritage Quay into the heart of St. John's.

Get around [ edit ]

Map

By car [ edit ]

Cars may be hired from numerous places around the island. Contact your hotel for more information. However, there is a 30 mph speed limit on the island, so driving can be a tad tedious. Car hire tends to be expensive, around US$100 a day.

By taxi [ edit ]

Taxis (usually minibuses) are not at all cheap in Antigua, and as the road surfaces can be a bit patchy in places, they will take you along the best routes though. The fare, for example, from the West Coast Pineapple Beach Resort (just past the village of Wilikies) to St Johns costs US$52 per taxi up to four persons. They are in stark contrast to bus fares.

By bus [ edit ]

Local buses are said to be unpredictable but they are certainly cheap, only US$1-2 per person. All start at St Johns, in the well-ordered bus station on Market Street.

See [ edit ]

  • Carnival . From late July to early August the Recreation Ground in St John's is liberated from the cricket fans and is home to the islands main festival. ( updated Jan 2018 )
  • Betty's Hope is a 17th-century windmill for processing sugar cane, on the Pares Village Main Road just before the boundary with Saint Philip parish. It fell out of use in the 20th century but has been restored, and occasionally has demonstration runs in the cane harvest season Feb-July. This makes it one of the only two functioning sugar windmills left in the world: the other is the Morgan Lewis mill in Barbados .

Do [ edit ]

  • Scuba diving — there are many reefs off the eastern coastline and as a result, there is some pretty awesome fish to see. Snorkeling is also pretty good here, as the water is very clear, and it's a lot cheaper! Snorkelling on the Western side is spotty to non-existent. Some of the locals recommended Darkwood beach as a location with good snorkeling off right off the beach. Not so. While the beach is stunningly beautiful and gloriously uncrowded, most of the "reef" is actually just grass. There is a small fragment of reef at the southern end of the beach, but you have to be wary of the rough surf that tends to push you toward the rocks. The common advice is that the best snorkeling is to be reached by boat.
  • Sailing — dinghies, cats, cruisers can all be hired from many places around the island, and there are plenty of coves and natural harbours to explore. Why not lay claim to the uninhabited island of Redonda?
  • Party at Shirley Heights Lookout (an old British fort and signal station near Falmouth ) on Sunday evenings to Antiguan music and see the spectacular sunset over English Harbour . Arrive at 4PM to catch the sunset, and by 7PM you'll be eating barbecue and dancing to music by local bands. Entry is US$6, which no longer includes a free drink. Even if you can't attend the barbeque, Shirley Heights Lookout boasts one of Antigua's best views and lures tourists and locals alike.

Buy [ edit ]

St Johns offers a variety of merchants offering most everything needed to visit the island or live there.

Heritage Quay, at the land end of the cruise ship piers, offers a wide variety of duty-free shopping for international visitors. To qualify you for duty-free treatment, merchants often ask to see airline tickets or ship ID cards. Offerings range from jewelry to liquor and tobacco, with one especially nice store for linens. Excellent and unique, hand-made gold jewellery can be found at the Goldsmitty on the street one short block south of and parallel to the main shopping street for the Quay.

Eat [ edit ]

Seafood is understandably very popular here. There is a nice variety of tropical fruits that grow on the island. The national dish is called fungi (pronounced foun-gee ) and pepperpot. Besides the local dishes, almost every major type of cuisine can be found on the island, e.g. Italian, Mexican, American, British, Jamaican. Just ask locals for directions.

Drink [ edit ]

There is a host of local drinks in Antigua: from pineapple, guava, mauby, seamoss, passion fruit and hibiscus to imported drinks (Coca Cola, Pepsi). All varieties of water exist, even local brands. Many beers can be found in Antigua from local (Wadadli, English Harbour rum), to regional (Carib Beer), to international, (Smirnoff and Heineken) and can be purchased at any local bar. Rum is by far the most popular spirit, best served as a "Rum Punch".

Stay safe [ edit ]

Antigua is a relatively safe place but, like all places in the world, wisdom should be used. Do not travel alone at night. Stay in well-lit places. Do not carry around more money than is absolutely necessary, nor flash expensive jewellery. Do not accept anything from strangers, not even car rides. It may be best to avoid street urchins who beg for money or politely refuse them and in the unlikely event of anything contact the police force.

Consider the Weeklong Sailing Vacation

Pink beaches, high seas, and rum floats..

voyage antiguo

Everyone knows that person who spends weeks sniffing around travel blogs, going deep into Tripadvisor rabbit holes, collecting Google docs from friends of friends, and creating  A Beautiful Mind– style spreadsheets to come up with the best  vacations   and   itineraries possible. In this recurring series, we find those people who’ve done all the work for you and have them walk us through a particularly wonderful, especially well-thought-out vacation they took that you can actually steal.

In January, San Francisco fiber artist Windy Chien set off on a sailing trip around the island nation of Antigua and Barbuda, her first time in the Caribbean but her fourth with the Sailing Collective . The Brooklyn-based company has a worldwide fleet of more than 4,000 vessels for weeklong all-inclusive group journeys (from $2,800 per person) to dozens of destinations from French Polynesia’s Society Islands to Sardinia and Corsica. For someone obsessed with knots, these maritime vacations allow her to learn the ropes up close (up to 90 percent of knots were invented by sailors). Chien’s past sailing trips have included a 2019 pilgrimage to Leonard Cohen’s home on Hydra while traveling around the Saronic Islands of Greece and a screening of Jaws on a Cape Cod passage. Here, Chien shares how she spent six days exploring tiny islands, wandering around 18th-century dockyards, and sipping a rum punch at every port.

4:30 p.m.: Land in Antigua, sip rum floats.

After three separate flights from San Francisco, we arrived at V.C. Bird International Airport in St. John’s, Antigua’s capital, at around 4:30 pm on an American Airlines flight out of Miami. The first thing that hits you when you land in Antigua is the heat and humidity and how wonderful it feels.

voyage antiguo

We hailed a taxi to Jolly Harbour to meet up with our crew, chef Flannery Klette-Kolton and Captain Jon Bickford, whom we’ve sailed with before around Nantucket and the Saronic Islands, and our fellow passengers, my friends Marisa Meltzer and Matthew Scarbrough. We did happy hour at West Point Bar & Lounge (3488+6GW, Jolly Harbour) , the lone watering hole at Jolly Harbour, where we sat on the open-air deck — in full view of a 52-foot Lagoon catamaran called the Great Scott, our seafaring home for the next week — and drank some very festive piña coladas with rum floats.

7:30 p.m. Order palak paneer and vegan eggplant bharta.

A one-minute walk from West Point Bar was our dinner destination, Curry & Tandoori House (3488+14D, Jolly Harbour) . We ordered butter shrimp, palak paneer, chicken tandoori, vegan eggplant bharta, aloo gobi, onion bhaji, garlic naan, and not one but two different types of paratha. The feast set the tone for the food on the rest of the voyage. Flannery told us how she spent the day in St. John’s “provisioning” at the Antigua Fisheries (4594+35G, Market St.) for locally caught mahi-mahi, jackfish, red snapper, and grouper, plus local tropical fruits such as papaya, mango, and pineapple from the Public Market Complex (4584+VF4, Valley Rd.) . We always eat very well on these trips.

voyage antiguo

9:30 p.m. Sleep on the boat deck.

voyage antiguo

Sailing Collective lets you sleep onboard while anchored in the harbor if you arrive the night before. I prefer to sail on catamarans, which have two hulls. They’re more stable and have more space above and below deck, plus a fun overwater hammock. The cabins on the Great Scott are comfortable, practical, and low frills with a big platform bed, a shower-over-the-toilet situation as well as operable portholes for fresh air — an important feature particularly because toilet paper can’t be flushed down the commode. One of the gritty realities of a sailing vacation is that TP gets tossed in a small garbage pail, which is then discarded at the next port. TMI, but I always bring butt wipes on these trips for extra freshness since boat showers don’t exactly have amazing water pressure.

As long as the weather cooperates, I sleep on the deck in one of the cushioned lounge areas. It’s like camping but on the water — you get as much fresh air as you want, and the softly lapping waves and gently bobbing boat lull you into the best sleep of your life.

9:30 a.m. Set sail.

The view of Antigua from Jolly Harbour is gorgeous with very lush peaks going right down to the turquoise waters and the Caribbean’s trademark colorful architecture along the shore. I’m an early riser but not the earliest, so I usually hear one or two other people in the harbor rolling up their sails or doing other various boat-maintenance tasks. Captain Jon was coiling all the line — in sailing, rope is called “line.”

voyage antiguo

I’m not particularly interested in getting my sailing license, but I love every other maritime-related thing, and of course I want to learn how to tie all the knots. When I get to see knots in their native environment, it’s like witnessing design in action. Take the bowline: I never thought it was a particularly pretty knot, but on a boat, it’s suddenly elegant, securing absolutely anything — the dinghy to the boat, for instance, or a boat to a piling. Sailing unlocks a whole new dimension for my art.

voyage antiguo

While we ate breakfast (Flannery made us sunny-side-up feta-and-herb eggs with oregano potatoes), Captain Jon motored the boat out of the harbor.

10:15 a.m.: Snorkel around Five Islands.

voyage antiguo

It was a very brief trip over to the Five Islands , which are these tiny islands that looked more like rocky outcroppings with one-person-size beaches. It’s a good snorkeling and swimming spot — we saw our first green sea turtle of the trip, some spiny lobsters, butterfly fish, angelfish, and a few stingrays. I’m the weirdo who goes on sailing vacations on the open ocean but who’s afraid of deep water. So hell, no, I will not free swim. I have to be tethered to a line. When we wanted to explore the little islands even more, we circumnavigated our dinghy around them, seeing the bird colony of pelicans, gulls, and ospreys up close.

10:30 a.m.: Explore an 18th-century dockyard.

Waking up in English Harbour, a three-hour sail from the Five Islands, we saw a lot of pretty boats anchored, from mono hulls with nice craftsmanship to beautiful “tall ships” like the ones on Pirates of the Caribbean .

We disembarked to explore Nelson’s Dockyard , which is the UNESCO World Heritage Site at English Harbour. It’s now a living museum, but in the late 1700s it was set up to maintain the British Royal Navy. There’s a little chandlery shop where they made the ropes and fittings for the boats, a blacksmith shop, a naval hospital, a sail loft. Touristy roadside kiosks sell all sorts of things — Marisa picked up a Kelly-green crochet dress that looked very Bottega. A French restaurant and bakery called La Brasserie (Slipway 00000, English Harbour Town) imports butter from France. You can dinghy up for croissants and coffee or, if you’re Flannery and you’re still provisioning, an armload of baguettes and French pastries.

2 p.m. Brace for high seas along Antigua’s eastern seaboard.

I may not like to free swim in the ocean, but I am a hearty sailor — no transdermal nausea patch or ginger tea for me. From English Harbour, we sailed along Antigua’s exposed eastern side, which means there are no weather-protective land masses for about 2,500 nautical miles to the east, where Africa’s Cape Verde islands are located. We went straight into the wind and over rough seas, bound for a peaceful, secluded anchorage at Ten Pound Bay. I settled in for the two-and-a-half-hour journey with a book from one of my favorite literary genres: disasters at sea. On this trip, I read several accounts of maritime misfortune including 438 Days: An Extraordinary True Tale of Survival at Sea , by Jonathan Franklin, and Adrift: Seventy-Six Days Lost at Sea , by Steven Callahan. By and large (a sailing term), making sure the sail you’re currently experiencing matches the calamitous conditions in the book ratchets up the fear factor.

11:30 a.m.: Anchor at Barbuda’s Princess Diana Beach.

Sailing to Barbuda is a good, long haul, more than 30 nautical miles, but luckily we had favorable conditions. It’s exciting because you can’t really see Barbuda since it’s flat, unlike Antigua, so you feel as if you’re heading into a real adventure without any land in sight. In 2017, Hurricane Irma did an enormous amount of damage on the island, so in some respects many parts of Barbuda are now undeveloped blank slates. There’s been political unrest over land rights — historically, native Barbudans have owned the land, per the Barbuda Land Act, but the prime minister wants to repeal that right so outside resort developers such as Robert De Niro can buy up acreage that would help pay for hurricane recovery.

voyage antiguo

We anchored at Princess Diana Beach, which is a wide, calm, white-sand bay that made it easy for us to dinghy to shore. There’s one bar on the beach called Shack-a-Kai (H65J+H7W, Codrington), where we drank rum punch with the owner, a very friendly Barbudan man named Enoch, before our fancy lunch.

1 p.m.: Order rum-roasted pineapple at Nobu.

I’m vaguely amused that there’s a Nobu restaurant (H69F+3C5, Codrington) on this island, the only part of De Niro’s underconstruction Nobu Beach Inn that’s currently open. Given all the political strife around unwanted land grabs here, I don’t want to give this place too much air time, but honestly we did really enjoy our meal: black-cod miso, the Nobu burger, rum-roasted pineapple — I love a hot-fruit moment. There’s also a gift shop on the premises where I replenished my diminishing supply of Vacation sunscreen with some luxury tubes of Soleil Toujours. (My mother is Chinese, and she’s had me on SPF from the womb.) Plus our group eventually reached the point where we’d swim together naked in the ocean, so there was a lot more surface area to protect.

10 a.m.: Walk along an empty pink-sand beach.

Barbuda is home to the Western Hemisphere’s largest frigate-bird sanctuary, located inside Codrington Lagoon National Park . But even before you see a single raven-plumed seabird inflate its red-hot throat pouch, an attempt to attract a female circling overhead, you hear the virile collective — more than 5,000 of them — squawking thunderously from their mangrove nests. We arrived right in the middle of mating season and observed a wildlife documentary’s worth of feathered fornication from the licensed sea taxi we hired at the jetty in Codrington, Barbuda’s only town. Part of the 90-minute sea-taxi tour included a stop at the nearby Pink Sand Beach. Not only is the sand on this practically empty eight-mile-long shoreline actually rosy from broken coral and shells, but it made a pretty sparkling sound to match. Afterward, we headed back to our catamaran, where Flannery had lunch ready: pasta with beans and shishito peppers; salad of fennel, radicchio, nectarine and olives; and jackfish tartare with toasted nuts and Calabrian chiles.

voyage antiguo

2 p.m.: Get in your last swim.

On the last day, we had another early passage from Barbuda to Rum Bus Beach on Antigua. We sailed the 35-plus nautical miles, a six-hour journey, on Antigua’s leeward side this time, which is more protected and has calmer seas. The scenery at Rum Bus looks like the Amalfi Coast — from a little ways offshore, you can see the lush hills and all the houses perched on them in different places. I was suddenly very aware that it was the last day of our boat trip, so I spent a lot of time in the water, floating, swimming, and paddleboarding.

voyage antiguo

7 p.m.: Lower the masts.

We ravenously tucked into a beautiful last meal on the boat, Flannery’s Moroccan-inspired feast of braised lamb with prunes, chickpeas with curry pumpkin, charred red pepper with feta and dill, and a romaine salad with caramelized oranges. The next day, we four passengers were checking into the Hodges Bay Resort (Sandy Lane, Hodges Bay) for one or two more sleeps in paradise before heading back to real life. Highly recommended, if only for the hot shower — I’ve learned to pack exfoliation gloves on these sailing trips to break up all that sunbaked salt and sand on my skin. The hotel stay also takes the edge off the sadness of leaving the boat and our trusty, two-person crew. I can’t remember exactly what Captain Jon’s final toast was, but he’s a sentimental skipper, so I’m sure it had something to do with the nomadic nature of sailing and how our whole environment on the ocean is blissfully reduced to just two elements: air and water.

voyage antiguo

Windy’s packing list

The Honest Company Hydrate + Cleanse Wipes

Trust me, these plant-based sheets make staying clean on the boat so much more effective. The jojoba and almond oil keep chafe at bay.

Pleats Please Issey Miyake Trousers

They pack down to nothing, can be laundered in the sink, and you can wear them on the plane, the boat, and if you go somewhere nice for dinner. I also have a pair of these Julia Heuer Jack trousers, which are more avant-garde. Pleats never go out of style.

BRYR Norma Platform Clog

Since you’re constantly toggling between going barefoot on the boat and needing shoes for land exploration, a pair that slips on and off easily makes sailing life easier.

Wendy's Spotify Sailing Playlist

I never leave for a boat trip without a good mixtape. This Caribbean playlist has the requisite yacht rock (Christopher Cross), plus a good portion of Brazilian music and rocksteady.

The extensive archipelago of cays and islets attracted settlers to Antigua more than 4,000 years ago. The island is one of the Leeward Islands in the Caribbean that became an independent state in 1981. Along the south-eastern coast is English Harbour and Nelson's Dockyard, a restored British colonial naval station that draws visitors from all over the world.

When it comes to beaches, there are 365, one for each day of the year! And with all that surrounding water, it's no surprise that popular activities include sailing, sport fishing, windsurfing, and kitesurfing. English Harbour and Falmouth are popular sailing destinations that bring sailing vessels and sailors to the island during the annual Antigua Sailing Week.

  • To make it easier to replace your passport if it’s lost or stolen, in addition to your passport, take a photocopy of your passport information page (keeping it separate from your actual passport).
  • Carry only a limited amount of cash, just enough for gratuities and incidental purchases. Major credit cards are widely accepted and can be replaced if lost or stolen.
  • Always lock your hotel room door (including patio and balcony door on any level of the building) and use the peephole before opening the door.
  • Store your valuables (such as cash, credit cards and airline tickets) in the hotel’s in-room safe or front desk safety deposit box.
  • If you must carry valuables on your person, do so in a pouch or money belt concealed under your clothing. Purses and backpacks can be easy targets for thieves.

Sargassum/Seaweed Advisory

Sargassum is a free-floating seaweed that is especially prolific in the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico. While beneficial to ocean life, these large free-floating seaweed mats often wash up on beaches. The amount of seaweed on the beaches fluctuates based on the time of year and ocean currents. While resorts do their best to maintain the beaches for their guests, you may experience some inconvenience during your stay.

Top Experiences

Beaches : The island has 365 beaches, one for each day of the year!

Nelson's Dockyard : A cultural heritage site and marina in English Harbour.

Museum of Antigua and Barbuda : Housed in the colonial Court House, this is the oldest building still in use in St. John.

Virgin Voyages Is Adding a New Destination: Antigua 

Richard Branson’s Virgin Voyages cruise brand is adding another new destination in the Caribbean: Antigua and Barbuda. 

The fast-growing cruise hotspot will begin receiving calls from Virgin Voyages in January 2024, Caribbean Journal has learned. 

The news was revealed on the sidelines of the Seatrade Cruise Global conference in Fort Lauderdale.

According to Juan Trescastro, VP of Global Destinations at Virgin Voyages, Antigua will be a new stop for the brand’s soon-to-debut ship, Brilliant. 

The ship will be staying in Antigua until 10 PM during each stop. 

“This will significantly increase the on-island spend with these calls,” the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority said in a statement. 

Brilliant will be calling on Antigua every other week, with a total of eight calls in the 2024 season.

Voyager, la misión más longeva de la NASA, cumple 45 años en el espacio

Esta imagen de archivo tomada en el Laboratorio de Propulsión a Chorro (JPL) de la NASA el 23 de marzo de 1977, muestra a los ingenieros preparando la nave espacial Voyager 2 antes de su lanzamiento ese mismo año. Crédito: NASA/JPL-Caltech.

Lanzadas en 1977, las sondas gemelas Voyager son la misión de operación más larga de la NASA y las únicas naves espaciales que ha explorado el espacio interestelar.

Las sondas gemelas Voyager de la NASA se han convertido, en cierto modo, en cápsulas del tiempo de su era: cada una lleva un reproductor de cintas de ocho pistas para grabar datos, tienen unas 3 millones de veces menos memoria que los teléfonos móviles modernos y transmiten datos unas 38.000 veces más lento que una conexión a internet 5G.

Sin embargo, las Voyagers se mantienen a la vanguardia de la exploración espacial. Administradas y operadas por el Laboratorio de Propulsión a Chorro (JPL, por sus siglas en inglés) de la NASA, en el sur de California, son las únicas sondas que han explorado el espacio interestelar, el océano galáctico por el que viajan nuestro Sol y sus planetas.

El Sol y los planetas residen en la heliosfera, una burbuja protectora creada por el campo magnético del Sol y el flujo hacia afuera del viento solar (partículas cargadas del Sol). Los investigadores, algunos de ellos más jóvenes que las dos naves espaciales distantes, están combinando las observaciones de las Voyagers con datos de misiones más nuevas para obtener una imagen más completa de nuestro Sol y cómo la heliosfera interactúa con el espacio interestelar.

El Interactivo de la NASA sobre el Sistema Solar permite a los usuarios ver dónde están las Voyagers en este momento en relación con los planetas, el Sol y otras naves espaciales.

“La flota de misiones de heliofísica brinda información invaluable sobre nuestro Sol, desde la comprensión de la corona o la parte más externa de la atmósfera solar, hasta el examen de los impactos del Sol en todo el sistema solar, incluso aquí en la Tierra, en nuestra atmósfera y en el espacio interestelar”, dijo Nicola Fox, directora de la División de Heliofísica en la sede de la NASA en Washington. “Durante los últimos 45 años, las misiones Voyager han sido integrales para proporcionar este conocimiento y han ayudado a cambiar nuestra comprensión del Sol y su influencia de una manera que ninguna otra nave espacial puede”.

Las Voyagers también son embajadoras, cada una con un disco de oro que contiene imágenes de la vida en la Tierra, diagramas de principios científicos básicos y audio que incluye sonidos de la naturaleza, saludos en varios idiomas y música. Los registros recubiertos de oro sirven como un “mensaje en una botella” cósmico para cualquiera que pueda encontrarse con las sondas espaciales. A la velocidad con la que el oro se descompone en el espacio y es erosionado por la radiación cósmica, los registros durarán más de mil millones de años.

Esta imagen destaca la carga especial a bordo de las naves espaciales Voyager de la NASA: el Disco de Oro. Cada una de las dos naves espaciales Voyager lanzadas en 1977 lleva un disco fonográfico de 30,5 centímetros (12 pulgadas) chapado en oro con imágenes y sonidos de la Tierra. Créditos: NASA / JPL-Caltech

Más allá de toda expectativa

Voyager 2 se lanzó el 20 de agosto de 1977, seguida rápidamente por Voyager 1 el 5 de septiembre. Ambas sondas viajaron a Júpiter y Saturno, con Voyager 1 moviéndose más rápido y alcanzándolos primero. Juntas, las sondas revelaron mucho sobre los dos planetas más grandes del sistema solar y sus lunas. Voyager 2 también se convirtió en la primera y única nave espacial en volar cerca de Urano (en 1986) y Neptuno (en 1989), ofreciendo a la humanidad vistas extraordinarias e información sobre estos mundos distantes.

Mientras Voyager 2 realizaba estos sobrevuelos, Voyager 1 se dirigía hacia el límite de la heliosfera. Al salir de ella en 2012, Voyager 1 descubrió que la heliosfera bloquea el 70% de los rayos cósmicos o partículas energéticas creadas por estrellas en explosión. Voyager 2, después de completar sus exploraciones planetarias, continuó hasta el límite de la heliosfera y salió en 2018. Los datos combinados de las naves espaciales gemelas de esta región han desafiado las teorías anteriores sobre la forma exacta de la heliosfera.

“Hoy, mientras ambas Voyager exploran el espacio interestelar, están brindando a la humanidad observaciones de un territorio desconocido”, dijo Linda Spilker, científica adjunta del proyecto Voyager en JPL. “Esta es la primera vez que hemos podido estudiar directamente cómo una estrella, nuestro Sol, interactúa con las partículas y los campos magnéticos fuera de nuestra heliosfera, ayudando a los científicos a comprender el vecindario local entre las estrellas, cambiando algunas de las teorías sobre esta región y proporcionando información clave para futuras misiones”.

El largo viaje

A lo largo de los años, el equipo de Voyager se ha acostumbrado a superar los desafíos que conlleva operar una nave espacial tan madura, a veces recurriendo a colegas jubilados por su experiencia o investigando documentos escritos hace décadas.

Cada Voyager funciona con un generador termoeléctrico de radioisótopos que contiene plutonio, el cual emite calor que se convierte en electricidad. A medida que el plutonio se descompone, la producción de calor disminuye y las Voyager pierden electricidad. Para compensar, el equipo apagó todos los sistemas no esenciales, pero también algunos que alguna vez se consideraron esenciales, incluidos los calentadores que protegen los instrumentos que aún funcionan de las gélidas temperaturas del espacio. Los cinco instrumentos a los que se les apagaron los calentadores desde 2019 todavía funcionan, a pesar de estar muy por debajo de las temperaturas más bajas a las que se probaron.

Recientemente, Voyager 1 comenzó a experimentar un problema que provocó que la información sobre el estado de uno de sus sistemas a bordo se confundiera. A pesar de esto, el sistema y la nave espacial continúan funcionando con normalidad, lo que sugiere que el problema está en la producción de los datos de estado, no en el sistema en sí. La sonda sigue enviando observaciones científicas mientras el equipo de ingeniería intenta solucionar el problema o encontrar una manera de sobrellevarlo.

“Las Voyagers han continuado haciendo descubrimientos sorprendentes, inspirando a una nueva generación de científicos e ingenieros”, dijo Suzanne Dodd, gerente de proyectos de Voyager en JPL. “No sabemos cuánto tiempo continuará la misión, pero podemos estar seguros de que las naves espaciales proporcionará aún más sorpresas científicas a medida que se alejen de la Tierra”.

Más sobre la misión

Una división de Caltech en Pasadena, JPL, construyó y opera las naves espaciales Voyager. Las misiones Voyager son parte del Observatorio del Sistema de Heliofísica de la NASA, patrocinado por la División de Heliofísica de la Dirección de Misiones Científicas en Washington.

Customer

Lena, our guide in Moscow was excellent. She was very knowledgable and could answer any question we had for her. We liked that she could pick up on our interests and take us places we might not have thought of to go. When we realized that one of the places we had chosen to see would probably not be that interesting to us, she was able to arrange entry to the Diamond Fund and the Armoury for us. Riding the Metro with Lena was a real adventure and a lot of fun. In Saint Petersburg we found Anna well versed in the history of the Tsars and in the Hermitage collection. Arkady in Veliky Novgorod was a very good guide and answered all of our questions with ease. Novgorod was perhaps a long way to go for a day trip, but we did enjoy it. Vasily was a great driver to have and kept us safe with good humour and skill. We enjoyed ourselves so much, my daughter says she is already planning to return. We would both have no hesistation to recommend ExpresstoRussia to anyone we know.

Just wanted to let you know that My grandson Bruno and I couldn´t have been more pleased with our week in Moscow (6/15 - 6/21). We were absolutely enchanted with the whole experience, including getting lost a couple of times in the Metro during our free time. Although both our guides (both Eleanas) were excellent, I would particularly commend the first one (she took us to the Tatiakov, the KGB tour, and to that beautiful cemetery where so many great Russian artists, authors, composers, musicians, militarists, and politicians are buried). Her knowledge is encyclopedic; and her understanding of today´s Russia as a product of its past was, for us, truly enlightening. I will be taking another tour in Russia, with my wife, within the next two or three years. I will be in touch with you when the time comes. Meanwhile, I will refer you to other potential visitors to Russia as I meet them.

Moscow, a City Like No Other

Moscow is Russia’s largest city with a population of between 12 and 13 million. It is also Europe’s largest city and when you visit Moscow, you can feel it. The layout and architecture of the city is eclectic, ranging from crooked, ancient streets and alleyways to wide, bustling boulevards, from medieval churches to Stalin skyscrapers and to modern, glass buildings towering over everything and of course in the center of it all is the Kremlin and the magnificent Red Square. Moscow is also home to a fantastic, efficient and very beautiful metro system – each station having its own special design. In fact, Express to Russia’s Moscow metro tours and excursions are some of our most popular attractions that we offer. On our Moscow tours, you will see this and more.

Moscow Tours centering on Russian History

Moscow has a long and interesting history and has been the capital of Russia in many of its different iterations – capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow , the Russian Empire and of course the Soviet Union (who could ever forget the Soviet Union?). Moscow, was founded in the 12th century by Prince Yuri Dolgaruki (Yuri of the long arms – he really did have long arms!). From that time on, it was home to the Russian Tsars until Peter the Great moved the capital to St. Petersburg in 1703. The city has survived invasions and sieges from the Mongols, the Tartars, the Poles, Lithuanians and Napoleon but has always persevered. Our Moscow tours will enlighten you on this great history and give you insights into Muscovites and their unique culture. Our Moscow tours show you what the city is like today but also brings to life the past. Moscow never seems to sleep and is bursting with energy. A Moscow tour with Express to Russia is truly the best way of getting to know Russia’s largest and most vibrant city.

Frequently Asked Questions From Our Travelers

What is the best time to visit moscow.

Any time of year is fine depending on what you plan to do. Summertime is pleasantly warm, ideal for exploring the city and its vibrant atmosphere, but Moscow will be much busier and accommodation is more expensive. Winter can be quite cold but beautiful nonetheless, and this is unproblematic if you intend to spend most of your trip in museums and galleries. There are also various festivals and events organised throughout the year. For more information about the best time to visit, read our guide

How many days are enough in Moscow?

If you plan your itinerary strategically and aren’t averse to a packed schedule, you can cover Moscow’s main sights over a long weekend. Most popular attractions are in the city centre, and the Moscow Metro allows you to cover much ground in a small amount of time. Ensure that your accommodation is fairly central and book tickets in advance, so that you can make the most of your days. For an informative and well-organised day out, check out our Moscow day tours with options to suit all interests.

Do they speak English in Moscow?

As Russia’s capital city, tourists are well accommodated in Moscow. There should be English-speaking staff in restaurants, bars, hotels, shops and attractions in tourist hotspots, and there are also English-speaking tourist police. Transport services have English translations on their maps and English announcements via intercom; alternatively, order taxis from the Yandex Taxi app (Russian Uber), though it’s unlikely that your taxi driver will speak English. If you get stuck and cannot communicate, it’s fine to use Google Translate.

Is it safe to travel to Moscow?

It is no less safe to travel to Moscow than to any European city if you exercise common sense and look after your belongings. As with every city some regions can be more unsavoury than others, but no tourist attractions are located there. The traffic in Moscow is notorious, so exercise caution when crossing roads. Do not take unlicensed taxis; book in advance or take public transport, which is widespread and perfectly safe. If you encounter any problems, look for the special tourist police who can help you. For more information, read our guide about staying safe in Russia .
