Yet the Voyager’s have kept on running on 70’s technology since day one. It seems that they will only stop when their batteries are depleted.

And seeing how their batteries are plutonium, that's going to be a while.

Funny, we're often told that the Voyagers have left the solar system and entered interstellar space. In truth, they won't even pass through the Oort cloud where comets are born for another 50,000 years.
