Bah Humbug - it's too soon to wish people "Happy Christmas, 2021", and it's a bit late to do the same for 2020.....

NASA’s New Horizons Reaches a Rare Space Milestone – It’s Almost 5 Billion Miles Away and Still Exploring
In the weeks following its launch in early 2006, when NASA’s New Horizons was still close to home, it took just minutes to transmit a command to the spacecraft, and hear back that the onboard computer received and was ready to carry out the instructions.

As New Horizons crossed the solar system, and its distance from Earth jumped from millions to billions of miles, that time between contacts grew from a few minutes to several hours. And on April 17 at 12:42 UTC (or April 17 at 8:42 a.m. EDT), New Horizons reached a rare deep-space milepost – 50 astronomical units from the Sun, or 50 times farther from the Sun than Earth is.

New Horizons is just the fifth spacecraft to reach this great distance, following the legendary Voyagers 1 and 2 and their predecessors, Pioneers 10 and 11. It’s almost 5 billion miles (7.5 billion kilometers) away; a remote region where one of those radioed commands, even traveling at the speed of light, needs seven hours to reach the far flung spacecraft. Then add seven more hours before its control team on Earth finds out if the message was received.

I'll revive this thread as the spammers now use it as a target to necromance.

Well, people, we just need a few more posts to make it to five digits.

I'm sure there is some pent up vocalization out there just waiting to be expressed.

"A few more"...

You probably fall into the category of people for whom "it just takes a minute" takes an hour and a half, "it'll be done in a jiffy" takes a week and "getting a substantial pay increase" means 14 cents more per hour. ;-)
