Does Anyone Remember Voyager 1
Voyager 1 launched in 1977 is still alive and well and is about to leave our solar system.

Absolutely! I was quite the big deal at the time, but I had forgotten all about it. (Heck - I'm old enough to remember Sputnik and Telstar.)
Amazing that it is still sending back information to earth!!

It was a wonderful thing. Thank you for reminding me. I have not thought about for a long time and it brought back some fond memories of my young family.
I was in Germany at the time and remember it too. I had a 1977 American Motors Hornet wagon. It died at about four years old. Should have gotten a Voyager! (Sorry)
I just hope the thing does not join with an alien life form and come back for us as VEGER!

Yes, I too, remember the dawn of the space adventure. You and me must be around the same age. |

I remember as well and also remember the Star Trek movie. I didn't think the movie was that bad, but then again, most Trekkies don't.
