You're both wrong. It's (IIRC) Voyager 2--it should beat
the Pioneers past the heliopause, even. (Strange but Stupid
Fact: Voyager 2 is the fastest-moving vehicle ever built,
relative to the Earth!)
That said, I like the ship, Rick. Very tech-y. I have a
minifig-size explorer on the way, but it looks nothing like
that!
