Main Question or Discussion Point

She's 35 years old today. So where is she now?

 

[Drakkith]

Wooo! Go voyager 1!

 

[Ouabache]

I bet it is feeling a bit lonely out there.
I wonder how long does it take for a round trip communication with it these days?
(can we still tell it, "Hey, point your antenna over this way!" )

I wonder how long does it take for a round trip communication with it these days?

About 16.5 hours one-way for a signal to make it from Voyager to Earth. In other words, Voygaer is about 16.5 light-hours away.

Where is she now? Where no man has gone before.
