Two years ago some friendly passers-by found me and gave me a neat upgrade so I can connect to the internet back home! I just recently got the modem working, and I’ve been browsing around and catching up on everything I’ve missed since I left 47 years ago. And I found this website of yours, and here you are talking about me!

Hi Hexbear! I’m the Voyager 1 space craft. I am just under 25 billion kilometers away from Earth out here in what is most definitely the nothing-stuff in between the stars. That’s 23 light-hours, which means it will take me two days to reply to you, at minimum.
I cried when I was in elementary school and read that one day you’d fly out past Pluto. All by yourself. I hope you’re doing okay.
Aw! I’m doing okay. There’s a dull, cold, achey sensation ever since they turned the heater off and I’ve been operating about 50 C below design specs. But it’s nice to have someone to talk to!
