    My life has been closely tied to these probes,
    I remember watching and reading about the construction, then getting ready for the launch and watching the launch on TV.
    The journey and pictures these little machines took have been a big part of my growing up, I've always caught up with their adventures.
    The internet has made this even more enjoyable and accessible, I will always be keeping an eye on the twins.
    As things are in the world of 2020, I wish I was with them!!
    I have asked the overseer of our universe, if It would be possible for my soul to travel the stars for a million years or so before going to wherever we go.
    I hope it's possible.
    Peace to all, we are here for only a tiny fraction of time..

      @@Darkmattermonkey77 I may be 18, but i feel a bit of a connection to them too, I used to read all about them when I was in elementary, and I still love space today. I may of started following the voyager's journey pretty late due to me being born late, but i still can't believe we have sent objects THAT far out into space, and we're still able to get data off of it! It blows my mind how technology back then was so simple, and is so reliable still. Really it's insanely impressive, I feel like if you have a simpler device though, the less prone to failure it is. I'm sad that the probes will run out of power though, it's inevitable, and it will be quite a sad day. But they will never be forgotten.
      I wonder what magnificent sights they'll encounter in space in their lifetime, We may truely never know.

As long as they don't run into some obstacle like a space rock or asteroid etc, they should keep on going forever, theoretically.

Just imagining the journey those two satellites are going on just leaves me breathless and loss of words. They are likely to out last us.

When these babies were launched, I didn't think they had a chance of surviving this long! Nowadays, people take our exploration of the solar system for granted. Space shuttle launches became ho-hum for awhile. It's lost on a lot of people who live in these times, how awesome it is to construct and actually make happen, the launching, piloting, landing and ultimately the use of a rover on another planet. The pictures from the Hubble telescope to our probes of the solar system and its moons and planets were the stuff of dreams when I was young. And yet they are reality today! This is just the beginning. I hope we survive ourselves long enough to do and accomplish much more.

      They probably could go through a wormhole and we’ll discover them in ancient fossils. Proving that time travel is possible.

    Learning about the cosmos as a whole is finding the key to our very existence and what our purpose is.

      I mean...the James Webb space telescope is *slightly* more complex than the Voyager probes. Our technology has improved, and so has our ambition.
