As of 2026, Voyager 1 has been traveling through interstellar space for over 48 years. To put its legacy into perspective, its onboard computer has less processing power than a modern musical greeting card. Despite this, the 'space veteran' continues to transmit data from approximately 25 billion kilometers away. While it has gradually shut down instruments to conserve power, its iconic 'Golden Record'—carrying the sounds and images of Earth—will likely outlive human civilization itself. Flying through the vacuum of space, it remains the ultimate time capsule, destined to drift forever as humanity's farthest-reaching artifact.
