    There’s an identical voyager here on earth built same as the launched one that they use for that purpose. They may also have simulations now, but doubtful hardware was capable enough when voyager 1 launched in 1977. This is three years before Tim Paterson and 86-DOS 0.10, and ten years before MS-DOS 3.31. Joe Biden was 35 and in his first term as Senator.

      You could end nearly any historical description with the sentence, “Joe Biden was 35 and in his first term as Senator.”

          Not to be that guy, but there were in fact 2 years in which Joe Biden was 35 unless he was born on January first, which he was not.

            The cumulative time that Joe Biden was 35 was only a year long
