3 MINUTES AGO: Voyager 1 Just Turned Back And Made A Terrifying Discovery

Exiting the Solar System isn’t easy.
You must escape the Earth’s and Sun’s combined gravitational pulls.
Of all the spacecraft ever launched, only five are on Solar System departing trajectories
The first, Pioneer 10, was launched a half century ago.
Humanity’s first spacecraft to encounter Jupiter, that gravitational assist accelerated it beyond escape velocity.
It remained our most distant probe until 1998, when Voyager 1 overtook it.
Launched 46 years ago, the Voyager 1 and its twin are time capsules of their era in many ways.
