Voyager 1 and the Epic Journey Through the Oort Cloud Even though Voyager 1 has already entered interstellar space, it’s still deep inside our Solar System in the grandest sense.It will take roughly 300 years for humanity’s farthest spacecraft to reach the inner edge of the Oort Cloud — the vast, spherical shell of icy comets and frozen debris that marks the true outer boundary of our Solar System.Once there, crossing the entire Oort Cloud will take another ~30,000 years.That means Voyager 1 will spend tens of thousands of years silently drifting through this enormous region — a cosmic wilderness stretching up to 100,000 AU (nearly 2 light-years) from the Sun, filled with trillions of icy bodies.By the time it finally emerges on the other side, it will have been traveling for over 30,000 years since leaving the planets behind… and it will still be only barely beginning its true journey into the wider Milky Way.A humbling reminder of just how vast our Solar System really is — and how small we are in the grand timeline of space exploration. Voyager’s voyage is only getting started.
@tomwarren So it’s basically a laptop that aspires to be a MacBook Pro, uses a MacBook Pro as the benchmark, is basically a MacBook Pro wannabe, is overstuffed with surveillance Copilot AI that users can’t ever get rid of and forever tries to catch up with Apple. Got it.🍏
Microsoft just announced its own MacBook Pro. The Surface Laptop Ultra has Nvidia’s new RTX Spark ARM chip, and it’s “the most powerful” Surface ever. It’s a spiritual successor to the Surface Book, complete with an SD Card reader and plenty of ports theverge.com/tech/940584/mi…
300GB at 300+ Mbps for $80/month anywhere on earth. Two years ago that would've been a premium home plan. Now it's for people who don't stay in one place long enough to have a home plan.
MrBeast said he only books flights with Starlink. Now he can skip the flight entirely and work from wherever the dish points. The nomad internet problem is solved.
