NASA's Voyager 2 space probe sent back its first message from interstellar space, after 42 years of its launch form the Earth. The Voyager 2 probe crossed into interstellar space on Nov 5, 2018, and went beyond the Sun's protective bubble 'heliosphere', out into the wider cosmos. It was launched 16 days before its twin spacecraft Voyager 1, but it took 6 years longer to reach the interstellar medium.
