Voyager space craft

[PneumaticSuicide]

I was thinking bout the Voyager space craft reaching the edge of our solar system and started wondering what will happen when it passes through.

My theory is that it will hit the edge of the solar system and tear through a giant poster what looks like the rest of the milkyway but is really just a painting and then re-appear near our sun and end up back at earth.

Stoopid theory i know but i think its funny to think about it

Any other thoughts?

It will hit an invisible wall and be forced to buy an expansion pack so the galaxy can "MILK" all it's hard-earned money.

So what your saying is... Wile E. Coyote is trolling NASA?

OT: I dont really think anything will actually "happen", other then the fact that we could brag as a species that we reached the end of our solar system...

what did you do with your day, cats?!

Dear NASA, we thank you for your continued support in using the Playstation network but we regret to inform you there is a chance that your personal information and credit card details have been hacked.

OT: Hopefully, it will just keep going.

If it can make it through the Kuiper belt and hypothesized Oort cloud, it should be ok. Barring the rogue black holes, gamma ray bursts and xenu.

Eh? This 'edge' you speak of is an imaginary line that our scientists have somewhat arbitrarily placed at X distance from the sun. There's not anything radically different from one side to the other.

It will either keep going or hit a rock.

Well, it DOES carry a golden(!) record plate for a reason... Maybe they had this in mind and just pretended it to be a message for aliens.

i am aware that its just gonna keep going i just like to imagine a more comedic exit

NASA will lose contact with Voyager, and then a few days later an alien spaceship will land at Cape Canaveral.
Upon which, the aliens will march into the office of whoever is in charge of NASA, drag him outside, point out the space probe that is lodged in their ship's rear window, and ask "Does this belong to you?"

Yeah... There isn't much difference between "Empty" space IN our solar system, and "Empty" space outside the solar system.

Nonsense. Space is finite. On the otherside of the moon? BRICKWALL!

God I hope not. I am majoring in Astronomy, and there isn't much of a career if there is a brick wall behind the moon... Maybe I should be studying Astro-demolition...

Anyone see Event Horizon? Something like could probably happen, of course then we'd all be fucked without Lawrence Fishburne.

Then it will just drift for thousands and thousands of years before reaching anything of remote interest.
Remind me; Was Voyager the one we sent out with all "relevant data" on humanity, hoping that an alien lifeform would pick it up?
