"Voyager 2 Makes Historic Crossing into Interstellar Space: 45-Year-Old Spacecraft Breaks New Ground In a groundbreaking achievement, NASA's Voyager 2 spacecraft has officially entered interstellar space, marking a major milestone in the exploration of our galaxy. Launched in 1977 as part of a twin spacecraft mission designed to study the outer Solar System, Voyager 2 has traveled over 14 billion miles from Earth, making it one of the most distant human-made objects in space. The spacecraft's crossing into interstellar space, the region of space outside our Solar System, is a testament to its remarkable durability and the ingenuity of the scientists and engineers who designed it. As Voyager 2 continues on its journey, it is expected to provide valuable insights into the conditions and composition of the interstellar medium, the material that fills the space between stars."
