Voyager 1 in Interstellar Space


The Voyager 1 spacecraft, the farthest man-made object travelling in space from earth, has indeed left the heliopsphere, the bubble that surrounds our solar system, and has entered interstellar space.


In 30,000 years, Voyager 1 will leave the Oort Cloud, the outer boundary of the solar system. And in 40,000 years, it will be closer to the closest star than our sun. Voyager is indeed going where no man or machine has gone before.

In-N-Out Burger

 

The hype was right -- In-N-Out burger is great. New York has White Castles, Washington started the Five Guys craze, but In-N-Out maintains authentic burger taste without joining blandness of mega hamburger franchises.
