TRANSCRIPT

Both Voyagers carry

a message from Earth

on a phonograph

record protected by an

inscribed golden disc.

Before 2020, Voyager will

likely cross into the

heliopause — where the

region of space dominated

by particles streaming

from the Sun ends and

interstellar space begins.

The twin Voyager

spacecraft are

exploring regions

of space never

before encountered

as they leave the

solar system.

Voyager 1 has

traveled farther

from Earth than

any other human-

made object.
