- 1Voyager 1 approaching one light-day from Earth●Voyager 1 is 25.76 billion km/16.01 billion miles away from Earth and will reach 1 light-day from Earth in 49 days, 6 ho
NASA's Voyager 1, the most distant human-made object, is now 25.76 billion km (16.01 billion miles) from Earth and is on course to be a full light-day away in about 49 days, meaning a radio signal will take 24 hours to reach it. Its twin Voyager 2 sits at 21.55 billion km. Space enthusiasts are marking the milestone as a striking reminder of the scale of interstellar space.
- 2Voyager 1 to reach one light-day from Earth in about 50 days●Voyager 1 is 25.76 billion km/16.01 billion miles away from Earth and will reach 1 light-day from Earth in 49 days, 18 h
NASA's Voyager 1, now 25.76 billion kilometres (16.01 billion miles) from Earth, is on track to become the first human-made object to sit one full light-day away, a milestone expected in roughly 49 days and 18 hours. Its twin, Voyager 2, trails at 21.55 billion kilometres. Space watchers are sharing live distance trackers as the anniversary of the mission's 1977 launch continues, marking the probe's steady march into interstellar space.
- 3Voyager 1 nearing one light-day from Earth●Voyager 1 is 25.76 billion km/16.01 billion miles away from Earth and will reach 1 light-day from Earth in 48 days, 18 h
NASA's Voyager 1, now about 25.76 billion km (16.01 billion miles) from Earth, is on track to reach a distance of one light-day — the distance light travels in a day — in roughly 48 days. Its twin Voyager 2 sits farther behind at about 21.55 billion km. Space watchers are marking the milestone, which would make the 1977-launched probe the first human-made object ever to be that distant.
