“Amazingly old spacecraft is starting to break.”
Voyager 1 has had an exceptional service life, the poor old thing is tired.
I hope they can say that about me one day
“He was basically built to live 75 years. Fortunately for us, and for science, he’s still sending back signals these 4,000 years later”

No choice, pal. In our own subjective universe we never die.
