The more important question (at least to me) is, where is it going to?
I worked on Voyager back around 1976, and I asked one of the researchers
once, "What star is going closest to?  And how close will it get?"  I
got a "We'll get back to" type of response.

So again, nine years later, "Where's it going?"
