Voyager 1 Has Left the Solar System

It's official. Voyager 1 has left the solar system. NASA announced it this afternoon. NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft officially is the first human-made object to venture into interstellar space. The 36-year-old probe is about 12 billion miles (19 billion kilometers) from our sun. It doesn't change a thing here on Earth, but it's still a BFD.
