We really need to start putting people back in space. Like to Mars and back to the moon. I realize it's dangerous and expensive but the public just doesn't get excited about probes. Politicians aren't going to fund shite that people don't care about.

Did you see it says it takes over 1.5 days to get a signal to Voyager 1 and back, at light speed.
That's far.

What's the projection on this thing crashing into something we don't know about. Or sucked into some black hole?
Also, judging by the tracker, we shot these things off in the same direction. Seems like we could have covered more ground shooting them in opposite directions.

So, Voyager 2 launched before Voyager 1.
Would have missed that trivia question.
