A veil of clouds was over New York City at 10:36am Eastern Time yesterday, September 11, 2011 as the crew of Expedition 28 observed a moment of silence from the International Space Station. And now, it is a new morning on the spaceship we call Earth.

Voyager 1 by Mike Gottschalk

Having outlasted all previous objectives, Voyager’s eternal mission at this point is just to fly off into interstellar space indefinitely. This piece sent me on a massive Wikipedia timewarp last night, in which I learned that Voyager is expected to keep flying until at least 2025, which will be a mind-numbing 48 years after its launch from this humble little ball of dirt. You’re a good ol’ girl, Voyager. Saganspeed!

Shuttle like a wooden ship
With the last tall mast
Goodbye, Atlantis.
