> That they can listen to Voyager with such an old instrument is incredible. It must help that the satellite is aimed at us.

It is indeed incredible.

Nitpick, but I'm not sure 'satellite' is correct in this context. Voyager is in a solar system escape trajectory.

You may be correct. In my head anything shot into space and still flying must be a satellite but that's a lazy shortcut.

The term that I always hear, is "probe."

I wanted to joke that it's a solar sattelite but nope... Galactic center sattelite maybe?

[ggm]

I think you'd have to demonstrate that the forces on its motion were dominated by motion relative to the galactic centre more than other effects, to get there.
