Hello Voyager 1, From 15 Billion kilometers!
To celebrate the achievement of crossing the 50 AU mark, NASA's New Horizons has captured a picture of Voyager 1, the farthest manmade object in space. Launched in 2006 to explore Pluto, New Horizons is now more than 5 billion miles away from us. At this distance, even signals take seven hours to reach the spacecraft.
Calibrated to study the faint Pluto, New Horizons could not look back at the Solar System just like Voyager 1 did in its 1990 Family Portrait. But, the team of New Horizons did something even more incredible: They captured the distant cousin of New Horizons, Voyager 1 spacecraft from 100 AU!
