I believe the answer is:

deep space

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'voyager's here with two velocities going in different' is the definition.
The answer is a location as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'directions' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'directions' could be 'ee' (the abbreviation for east written twice) and 'ee' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for deep space that I've seen before include "Region beyond our atmosphere" , "void" , "even devoid of 12 [THIN AIR]" .)
