The enshrouded Voyager spacecraft to be launched on a mission to the outer planets no earlier than August 20 was mated with Titan/Centaur-7 at Launch Complex 41 today. The 1,800-pound spacecraft is to conduct an extensive survey of Jupiter, Saturn, and perhaps, Uranus, on a mission which will carry it into galactic space. A sister spacecraft is scheduled for launch on a similar journey no earlier than September 1.
