All in all it is a miracle that tecnology built 34 years ago has survived the freezing temperatures of deep stellar space and that we can still receive information from it with no relay stations anywhere on the solar system (when I was a kid everyone though by now we would have stations on the moon, mars and we would be starting to do missions on saturn and jupiter
). Sadly nowadays techology is better but is built to last as little as posible without the consumer noticing, gone are the times of cars and consumer electronics that were built to last, I bet by the time I get my own
all purpose cultural cat girl it will last less than most phones do nowadays >_<
