#voyager1

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social But we have managed to get something we made a light-day away (other than photons, for the pedants 😀) #voyager1

I've seen November 13, November 15 and November 18 as the day #Voyager1 officially reaches one light day from Earth, so until I figure out which is correct, I haven't added the date May add some stars, too, but I need to get the frame first so I can figure out where to put them Really excited I did this piece and that it was finished-ish in time!

NASA just pulled off something that sounded impossible. Voyager 1 is over 15 billion miles from Earth, and its roll thrusters were declared dead more than 21 years ago. Engineers sent commands that took over 23 hours to arrive, hoping dormant hardware would wake up. It worked. Humanity is still fixing a spacecraft launched in 1977 from interstellar space. 🌌🚀 #NASA #Voyager1 #Space #Science
