NASA REPORTS VOYAGER I HAS LEFT THE SYSTEM

On Thursday NASA formally announced  that Voyager I, launched in 1977 on a 4 year voyage of exploration to study Jupiter and Saturn, left the solar system last year. Voyager I is still working after 36 years in space and reports information scientists study to this day.

I think it is a stellar achievement. Every soul that worked on this spacecraft and mission has great reason to be proud of their singular achievement. Learn more about the Voyager mission here.
Updates as INS gets them from NASA.
