Robotic Spacecraft Poster #1: The Voyager Program
As we expected the Voyager Program was voted into the top spot by The Planetary Society poll with 507 votes (18.5%) and thus became poster #1 for our Kickstarter project. As many of you already know… Voyager 2 holds the record for most celestial bodies observed in a single mission having flown by four planetary systems — two of which were previously, never seen before by human eyes. Then of course Voyager 1 also became the first man-made interstellar object with Voyager 2 expected to do the same in 2016.
Note of interest: As a nod to his “Pale Blue Dot” and a tribute to his importance to planetary exploration during the Voyager era, we wanted to feature Carl Sagan in the final design. Sadly, we were unable to get the rights to use his likeness and replaced it with a simple pointing getsure of a human hand.
