[QUOTE="AlexB23, post: 77651725, member: 450900"] Agreed. Well, technically (ahem, clears throat), the sun is the nearest star. But yes, the Voyager is 0.0645% the distance to the Alpha & Proxima Centauri system, the second nearest star. :) Sources: [URL]https://www.loc.gov/exhibits/dreamofflight/dream-timeline.html[/URL] , [URL='https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/ion-propulsion-system-wins-discover-magazine-award']Ion Propulsion System Wins Discover Magazine Award[/URL] 1903: Wright Bros first flight 1947: Yeager breaks the sound barrier 1969: Apollo 12 lands on the moon 1977: Voyager 1 & 2 launched 1990s: Ion drive invented 2024: Seems that innovation in the space sector has slowed.
