Farewell Voyager 2
TimFox:
It could be worse: they might have to take it into the shop...
Infraviolet:
Perhaps a human interstellar civilisation would leave Voyager travelling on its way, keeping track of it so tourist ships could pay it a visit.

That solder joint hasn't failed in the last 50 years. If it fails sometime in the next 3000 is it really a bad joint?

yeah because you know that some guy forgot to clean the flux off after tinning and then did a solder joint that was covered in icky spent flux or some other thing. way to let down civilization to get early lunch

I guess they'd charge $100 for fixing the joint, and $100,000,000,000 for the travel charge.
