r u trekkies funnin me?
No. It's actually a very interesting story. I've followed it off and on for a while; I really do appreciate your posting it. I wonder how long the craft will survive once it's outside the heliopause and fully exposed to intergalactic cosmic rays.
Guess it will become, wait for it, d-a-a-r-r-k matter.

This brings up two questions:
1. Since this is the first man-made object to leave the solar system, how do we know what a galactic cosmic ray is, and how does it differ from a normal run-of-the-mill cosmic ray?
2. Will the Klingons shoot this one too?
