Voyager 1 was one of a pair of spacecraft launched to explore the planets of the outer solar system and the interplanetary environment. Each Voyager had as its major objectives at each planet to: (1) investigate the circulation, dynamics, structure, and composition of the planet's atmosphere; (2) characterize the morphology, geology, and physical state of the satellites of the planet; (3) provide improved values for the mass, size, and shape of the planet, its satellites, and any rings; and, (4) determine the magnetic field structure and characterize the composition and distribution of energetic trapped particles and plasma therein.

If you notice the text above says nothing about searching for life. Yet they added a gold record on Voyager 1 with greetings from nations around Earth, and a map showing how to find Earth.I believe that is the main mission with both Voyagers.To find life in the universe.

Peace Everyone
