The 1989 Voyager spacecraft encounter with Neptune is analyzed from a navigation system viewpoint. Some sources of navigation challenge are mentioned, e.g. the extreme distance to Neptune, the two body geometry, the closeness of the flyby, the low light level, and the complexity of science observations to be supported. However, the emphasis is on certain techniques which have been developed by the Voyager project to meet these challenges. Each technique will be outlined and its relevance to navigation will be discussed.
