November 3, 20205 yr Voyager 2 just received a call from Deep Space Station 43 on Earth which is 11,677 million miles from it. It`s even farther if you calculate it in km (18,8 million km) Oh, the phone bill next month... Deep ain`t much of a talker. This was just a test. https://www.nasa.gov/feature/jpl/nasa-contacts-voyager-2-using-upgraded-deep-space-network-dish

Back in the "good old days" of 50 years ago that call based on the distance and average flat-rate cost/minute that call would have cost USD$8,371,000 🙂.....Doug Intel 10700K @ 5.1Ghz, Asus Hero Maximus motherboard, Noctua NH-U12A cooler, Corsair Vengeance Pro 32GB 3200 MHz RAM, RTX 2060 Super GPU, Cooler Master HAF 932 Tower, Thermaltake 1000W Toughpower PSU, Windows 10 Professional 64-Bit, 100TB of disk storage.
