It all starts with a curiosity, Voyager 1 and 2.



Souce


If you believe that in Uranus and Neptune, the last two planets in the solar system, the pressure is so high that it could form diamonds. Below their surface, beyond these icy giants, space becomes even more vast and mysterious, of the more than 400 space missions that humanity has carried out only twice have we come this far.


It was with the Voyager One and Voyager Two spacecraft launched in 1977, these brave little waves allowed us to see many things for the first time, captured storms and planetary rings on Jupiter and Saturn, discovered 22 moons and volcanoes, photographed Uranus and Neptune.


No spacecraft has gone as far as them, the most amazing thing is that they are still moving and have crossed the border of our solar system and have entered into Interstellar space, however, even further to almost unimaginable distances the Oort cloud extends something incredible, it is like a colossal shell that surrounds our solar system, it is believed to be made up of billions of icy bodies that orbit around the sun and that are the origin of some comets that sometimes visit us as Halley's Comet.


Voyager 1 and 2 will still take about 300 years to reach the Oort cloud, although by then they will have lost all communication with Earth.
