Great article for all but one thing, it says "On August 20, 1977, the compact disk, the microwave oven, and the fax machine were communication tools that could only be glimpsed on the technological horizon."

Voyager project manager Ed Massey recently concluded: "I don't think anybody expected we would still be here 25 years later though we probably could go another 25 years."
