So eloquently!
I wonder then, if we can truly say Voyager has left the solar system; surely the Kuiper and the Oort, are being held in place because of the gravity of our sun, no?
I kind of like to think of Voyager still within the confines of our system, even though it has been travelling all these years. Are you a Star Trek fan by the way? Do you remember V-ger? :-)
