What If We Turned On Voyager 1’s Camera?

Get NordVPN’s 2 year plan 4 months for free at Voyager 1 has been in space for over 40 years making it the furthest man made object. Despite this, the Voyager 1 cameras were turned off in 1990 leaving Voyager 1 completely blind. But why were they turned off in the first place and what would Voyager see if they were turned back on? In this video I cover just that as we learn more about the Voyager 1 camera system and why Voyager 1 is Permanently blind.
