Humans have pushed the frontiers of exploration in space by
sending probes to the edge of our Solar System and beyond. Just
how far have we traveled, and what have we seen along the way?
How do we keep in touch with the most distant objects, and what
is left to learn from these probes? We will look at the very old
Pioneer and Voyager missions past Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and
Neptune, as well as the New Horizons mission past Pluto and into
the Kuiper Belt.
