They're the most distant human-made objects in space. And soon they'll exit the solar system forever. In 1977, NASA launched the identical robotic probes Voyager/and 2 into deep space. Through their visits to four planets and 48 moons, they've transmitted a wealth of spectacular images and unprecedented scientific data. Recently, the twins celebrated their 25th birthday at 6.3 and 7.9 billion miles from Earth, and the hard-working pair is still going, going, and going ...
