I'm not sure it is important news any more, but at the time it was quite fascinating. This past Valentine's Day marked the 27th anniversary of Voyager 1's last ever photos taken. On that day 27 years ago, Voyager 1 turned its camera inwards towards the Sun and took 60 pictures to capture the only portrait of our solar system.

If you want to know how far away Voyager 1 and 2 are, check here:
