NASA to power down the mighty Voyager space probes

You’ll probably hate me when you find out I grew up in Los Angeles, and my best friend’s dad worked at JPL, and he gave us a grand tour of the Voyager image processing center. We got to see images from Saturn and Jupiter as they were received from the probes – line by line of pixels.

(edit)

It was kind of cool looking back at that time. I got to see actual data from the probe a handful of years AFTER I watched the probe leave the Earth.
