Haha - Can just imagine Katrien going into Tescos for a few bits last night, before going home for a nice relaxing bath after a long hard working day that ended at 3pm... "Ooh I think I'll get some candles to enjoy..."
Then you just hear this blood curling scream (Nooooooo) coming from the candle aisle!!
Taken by Voyager 1 on 14/2/1990 from a distance of 3.7 billion miles. 'A mote of dust, suspended in a sunbeam'. Carl Sagan
how do we know ?
Must admit I wasn't there at the time MOL.
However if NASA is to be believed ...
Voyager 1 launched on Sept. 5, 1977, about two weeks after its twin, Voyager 2. Together, the two probes conducted a historic "grand tour" of the outer planets, giving scientists some of their first up-close looks at Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and the moons of these faraway worlds.
The duo completed its primary mission in 1989, and then kept on flying toward the edge of the heliosphere, the huge bubble of charged particles and magnetic fields that the sun puffs out around itself. Voyager 1 popped free of this bubble in August 2012 and entered into the exotic and unexplored realm of interstellar space. Voyager 1 is now heading for a star known as AC +79 3888. ETA 40,000 years time.
Should either of the probes be intercepted by alien races they will find a golden disc on board that includes a recording of Chuck Berry's Johnny B Goode ... wonder what they'll make of that?
They aren't even 2 Light Days away from earth yet, which is like planning to start on a journey on foot from here to New Zealand for 2020, but dinosaurs are still roaming the Earth.
And the universe in it's entirety is expanding evermore, it's mindblowing
Anyway, here's a picture of a place I love, on that tiny light blue speck

Incidentally the Voyagers are still monitored - real time odometers here http://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/where/
