12 billion miles, not good news for those trying to get away.

If we could somehow bring it back, it would be a great time capsule.

12 billion miles at 186,000 miles/second = ~6.4 weeks...?

A big shout-out to my Dad who led the development program at General Electric to build the Radioisotope Thermal Generators (RTGs) that are still powering the Voyager spacecraft. I was in college when he was running that program. Dad passed 19 years ago -- Well Done, Dad!

You think that’s something, my ‘77 Pinto still has a working radio. I can get BeeGees and other assorted disco hits. The car doesn’t move, but, yeah, I can listen to the radio.

how long does it take to send out a signal to Voyager 2? And for the signal to return? (12 billion miles / speed of light (186,282 miles/sec)) / 3600 seconds per hour gives ...
a little under 18 hours one way.

How is this even remotely possible? 12 billion miles away and can transmit and receive a signal? If true, then wow.

Clearly designed and built by NASA in pre-diversity times and without moslem help...
Maybe it has a Timex ticker on it’s side...

Wow! Well done, Dad, indeed!
I find this all .. as Spock would say ... “Fascinating”
