Good Morning, all,

excuse my curiosity, but have you ever had trouble freeing a stuck drill bit?

Now imagine if your drill is > 300 million km distant:

And look what crawled out from under that Martian rock...

#SpoilerAlert

Nothing.

Voyager I, NASA's outer planet explorer, will reach later this year a distance of one light day from Earth. That's 16.1 billion miles from Earth. During its journey since its launch in 1998 it has made many 'firsts' but it is not yet at the edge of the solar system. Many of its probes have been switched off to conserve energy, but it does have plenty left due to the energy coming from radioactive decay, which has reduced over time. https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/news/nasa-voyager-1-light-day
NASA's Voyager 1 probe is about to reach a distance of 1 light-day from Earth. Here's why this cosmic milestone is so huge | BBC Sky at Night Magazine

Around 13 November in 2026, Voyager 1 will be one light-day from Earth. A light-day is the distance light travels in a vacuum in 24 hours.
