Not to hijack this thread, but y'all need to take a look at the pictures coming back from the rover Curiosity of Mars. We're EXTREMELY close to putting man on that planet

So when we receive messages from Voyager, how far in the past are they?

Assuming it's gotten to the point of being 1 light year away, it's 1 year.

Well according to that link Voyager 1 is 37 light hours away.

My 2000 Accord will do that in a day.

There has to be a voyager 1 / enterprise discovery clock somewhere on the interwebz.

Some Trekkie you are.

Everyone knows that was Voyager 6 that the Enterprise encountered.

My 2000 Accord

Et tu, Coug? I have a 2000 Accord Coupe EX with a 2.3L 4-banger, 5 fwd speed manual trans. Forest green w. tan leather interior. Even the way I drive it, ~35 mpg hwy, just under 30 mpg city. On empty hwy, it'll cruise at 90 mph (still delivering over 30 mpg, even into a headwind) feeling like it's going 60. Smooth and stable.
