Space enthusiasts are sharing a milestone claim from Mat Kaplan of The Planetary Society: on November 18, Voyager 1 will make history as the first human-made object to reach one light-day from Earth, meaning its radio signals take a full day to arrive here. Launched in 1977, the probe remains humanity's most distant spacecraft, and the anniversary-style milestone is being celebrated as a rare piece of upbeat space news alongside engineering and cosmology discussions.
