September 18, 1977 –
NASA’s unmanned space probe Voyager 1 snapped the first photograph of the Moon and the Earth in the same frame while on its mission to study the Solar System and its boundaries. At the time, Voyager 1 was 7.25 million miles (11.66 million kilometers) from Earth.
Voyager 1 continues its mission today and still is in communication with NASA scientists.
And so it goes
