Living It, Believing It, Make it Work Out

Eleven billion miles from home....hope he packed a sammich or sumpin'. Voyager is 11,000,000,000 miles and 35 years out from its lanuch from earth. It was late summer 1977. Disco was sucking up the radio. The US was having a post-party hangover from it's year-long bicentennial celebration. Saturday Night Live was....fresh and funny. The Voyager's 1 and 2 took off for a trip to infinity and beyond. Now it was announced today from JPL in Pasadena that Voyager 1 has officially reached an area sort of like a particle interstate highway. The ship is joining the flow....heading for interstellar space. Below is a nice little animated video of what Voyager 1 is experiencing right now. Getcha feelin kinda starry-eyed, doesn't it? Little bit? Let's let Justin hayward, John Lodge and the Moody Blues great tune Gemini Dream rock us to deeeeep spaaace! DEEEEEEEP SPAAAAAACE....
