Now that is pretty damn cool. I love it when science is wrong, it's humbling =)

Wow. I would've never expected such results. Why would cosmic rays only come from one direction? I wonder what else it finds out there.
-
Science!
This is what makes science awesome
The fact it continues to blow people's minds

Relative movement of the entire solar system being higher than anticipated? /shrugs.
Einstein would probably have had a headache over the results!

hmmm, interesting times

Woo, we know jack-**** about this!

Flood of "Dark Bull**** Shenanigans" theories in 3... 2... 1...

am I the first person to ask, what do we see when we look in the direction those rays are coming from?

Probably a supernovae.

Bosch beer.

And lo, for the small vessel of man passed through the turbulent boundary, freed itself from the shackles of the solar system, and finally picking up the cosmic signal clearly it gazed out into the abyss and beheld the majestic sight of the Bosch Beer.

So...how does this indicate that Voyager is entering an actual "cloud"?
Also, who else thought that "cloud" in this thread title was referring to internet storage clouds, and thus was totally misled by what this thread was about, because they didn't get the Star Trek reference...? :S

I'm lucky my dad was a Star Trek fan. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Trek:_The_Motion_Picture)
I just realized that VGER is birthed from Voyager 6, which never existed, making this thread title rather innaccurate. :P
-
Ah, I remember that, I have seen that. Thanks. :D

Ditto. After posting this thread I went a rewatched that scene in TMP in a 1080p version, and was able to make out the 6 beneath the grime. :p However, from what I could tell, TMP's V6 is identical in visual design to the real V1, so... :p

I wasn't even aware it was the 6th version in the movie. Always took it to be the one here described...
