Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft
Voyager-1 departed Earth on 5 September 1977, after it's sister spacecraft left the Earth.
It moved beyond the bubble of gas emitted by the Sun - a domain known as the heliosphere - in 2012.

What was the primary objective of these twin spacecrafts, V1 and V2? They were doing a survey of the planets -Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune- which was done in 1989.
