Excerpt: "IN ITS ABSURDITY OF TIME: THE 1977 VOYAGER PROBE/S MILLION YEAR JOURNEY INTO THE VAST COSMOS, TO BECOME A ROBOTIC RELIC OF HUMANITY."

"On the 5th of September 1977, forty five years ago, the NASA's space probe Voyager 1 was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, atop of a Titan IIIE rocket.  Sixteen days after its twin, Voyager 2 which was also launched, with the ambition for both probes being able to take advantage of the gravity pull from the gas giant Jupitar, in a once-and-only 175 year alignment of the solar system planets.  Thus, using each planet as a way of hopping onto its bent gravity waves, propelling the Voyager probes towards their Solar System destinations, starting with Jupitar, then onto Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.  With each turn, orbiting around the gravity of the planets, the Voyager would take detail measurements, photos and observational data, collating and storing on its onboard computers and then sending the data back towards Earth's interconnected Deep Space Network (DSN).

Voyager I is now over 14 million 659 miles from Earth, having entered Interstellar Space on the 25th August 2012, with Voyager 2 trailing not that far behind.   Both probes carry a Golden Record as its intended time capsule from the human race, that after 45 years is a snapshot of 115 images that resonates humanities most basic tenets, eating, drinking, shelter, sport, anatomy, transportation all up to that point in our history until 1977..."
