Voyager Nears Edge of Interstellar Space
Lost in all the Curiosity hype (which is absolutely hype-worthy) is this little gem of information.
Voyager I is almost at the true edge of the solar system and is thus almost officially in interstellar space. Ever since learning about the Voyager missions in college, I’ve been really excited to see what happens to them. The end-game of both Voyagers is just them floating out of the solar system and reporting back as long as they can.
Very glad to see they’re not forgotten, and that since their launch in 1977 they’re still providing valuable scientific feedback. Woohoo Voyager Mission!
