- Recent data has indicated a drastic increase of charged particles from outside our solar system (25% increase between January 09 and January 2012)
- 9% increase in cosmic rays since for the month of May
- It's currently 11 billion miles away from the Earth
- NASA says that we'll truly know when the Voyager crosses out of the solar system when it begins detecting magnetism running "North-South" instead of "East-West"

Voyager 2 is already way beyond that though, right?

Isn't this how Star Trek 1 starts?

And on Voyager 1 is a golden record, providing various information/greetings, such as the fact that it originates from a solar system with nine planets.

Wait, ****.

We need to go hunt down and destroy that satellite, so the Covenant won't discover the location of earth!
