But it's the VOYAGER Engelbert!

Wags finger disapprovingly

Lol name me 3 of the core components that make up for the structure of the voyager.

The antennae, the dish and the computing stuff.

You kept the bar too low ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Ho !? I didn't know you had it in you ! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

I kind of hoped you would have mentioned any of these: the magnetometer, polarimeter, and the interferometer; or the spectrometer, or the RTG system.

Hehehehehe

The last time I ever read about it was in 3rd grade ๐Ÿ˜‚. So this is definitely the extent of my knowledge ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
