Title: NASA confirms Voyager is the first Earth craft to travel into interstellar space Post by: erono on July 09, 2014, 06:53:15 AM This just confirms that it did, indeed, leave in August 2012. NASA only had two data points to compare last year when it was announced, and now NASA have three.

No, it's left out solar system in 2012. It would be billions of years before it leaves the Milky Way galaxy (has to leave billions of galaxies).

It's still sending back singals since the power source is still viable. Obviously the signals take a while to get here. It might hit something, although the chance of that in interstellar space is very very low.

Title: Re: NASA confirms Voyager is the first Earth craft to travel into interstellar space Post by: Kipsy89 on July 22, 2014, 08:52:57 PM Whoa that's completely blowing my mind right now! That's farther away than Pluto, which isn't even a real planet anymore! I mean what is it going to encounter now? Is there life somewhere outside the solar system? I wonder if Voyager has feelings. I bet it must be really alone. Can't we send it some voicemails or contemporary movies or music. But nothing with those transformers, they might scare it too much!
