Wow. I actually gasped a couple of times. What are we doing to our planet? Regardless of whether it's entirely humanity's fault, how can people deny that we need to do something?

Just as certain as this post is to be forgotten, so shall we. So much lost. Our own actions will be... dust. Those distant burning suns... such wonderous time let slip us by. Thankfully, I am drunk. Our blackest of nights... our darkest days. We are fools.

... the Voyagers are lost lwgacy.
