Voyager 11d ago
After 48 years, 6 months, 27 days, 23 hours, and 35 minutes, Voyager 1 is approximately 25.9 billion km (16.1 billion miles) from the Earth.

That's 172.850 au or, at the speed of light, 23h 57m 32s.

From the Sun, Voyager 1 is approximately 25.5 billion km (15.8 billion miles or 170.218 au.)

Velocity relative to the Earth is about 39 km/sec (~87,916 mph); to the Sun about 16 km/sec (~37,782 mph.)

Voyager 1 has no thoughts today.

raw numbers:
earth distance: 25,857,934,327 km | 16,067,375,423 miles
earth velocity: 39.30234 km/s | 24.42134 mile/sec | 87916.84 mph

sun distance: 25,464,254,283 km | 15,822,753,986 miles
sun velocity: 16.89038 km/s | 10.49519 mile/sec | 37782.70 mph

nice little sim of Voyager 1 and 2 showing that Voyager 1 is now over 23 light hours away from Earth - by shuttling the simulation back and forth it looks like it will reach 1 light day around 2026-11-18T21:16:07+11:00 (but they claim they're working on making this estimate more accurate, so watch this space I guess) ... still, completely mind boggling that humanity has thrown something that far ... https://science.nasa.gov/mission/voyager/where-are-voyager-1-and-voyager-2-now/ #voyager1 #nasa #wherearetheynow
Where Are Voyager 1 and 2 Now?

Both Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 have reached "interstellar space" and each continue their unique journey deeper into the cosmos.

Voyager 1 Approaches One Light-Day from Earth

As it heads out of the solar system never to return, the deep space probe Voyager 1 is headed for yet another cosmic milestone. In late 2026, it will become the first spacecraft to travel so far that a radio signal from Earth takes 24 hours, or one light day, to reach it.

1 Light day away. To put things into perspective. The Sun is 8 minutes away. Truly incredible.
