Voyager Phones Home
The NASA space probe Voyager I has reached the very edge of our solar system, and reported some data back. 
The probe, launched some 27 years ago crossed termination shock last december and has now reached the very edge of our sun Sol's sphere of influence. Soon Voyager will actually exit fully out of our solar system and enter into interstellar space. It's kind of like crossing over into international waters except Voyager is 27 so it could drink here anyway, and there's no one to gamble with.
The craft should continue to operate until about 2020 (the future, ooooooh).
