Voyager 2

Voyager 2 reaches interstellar space

After 41 years of exploring the Solar System, NASA’s Voyager 2 has crossed into interstellar space, sailing beyond the reach of the Sun’s influence. Signals from the craft suggest that it crossed the boundary of the heliosphere on 5 November. It now joins its twin, Voyager 1, which made the passage in 2012.
