…is leaving our solar system.
But I don’ t think that anyone will be able to play the disc inside it (was this the one with the disc?) . At best someone could see our sparkling earthlings business card, but chances are slim. On the other hand, it’ s not impossible.
It’ s nice to know, anyway…
Now that i read the article i know what the space agency did with all of Elvis’s gold records after he died-They put them on the voyager so any aliens that come across the spacecraft will listen to them and surmise the earth is inhabitated by beings of very low intelligence and not worth attacking-
Bon Voyage, Voyager! Don’t come back as V’Ger!
From the NASA site:
…Once the Voyager spacecraft leave the solar system (by 1990, both will be beyond the orbit of Pluto)…
A bit too late, isn’ t it? 15 years. lol.
Goodbye!
I wonder if some alien will find it and return saying, “I think you lost this!”
That was when V1 passed trough Pluto, right now it’s leaving the Sun’s area of influence, which is considered the real frontier of our solar system.
D’ OH!!! ::doh::
