This is the sort of stuff this country should be doing with wild abandon. The voyager was done on the cheap.

Duh! There was this thing called a "Cold War" going on at the time!
Amazing.
To put it in perspective, V1 has traveled almost 11 BILLION miles.
Which is .002 light years.
The closest galaxy to ours is 25,000 light years away (Canis Major), and Andromeda (the closest spiral, similar to ours) is 25,000,000 light years away.
As amazing as V1 has been, in terms of the universe, we haven't made it off the front porch yet
I don't like this one much

No Crap!!! Why can't we pump 1 trillion into NASA? Talk about some fun times!!!
NASA's leaders made an early decision to rely upon outside researchers and technicians to complete the Apollo project. Between 80 and 90 percent of NASA's overall budget in the 1960s went for contracts to purchase goods and services from private industry, research institutions, and universities. Contractor employees working on the program increased more than 10 times, from 36,500 in 1960 to 376,700 in 1965. NASA found that this was both good politics and the best way of getting Apollo done on time. It was also very nearly the only way to harness talent and institutional resources already in existence in the emerging aerospace industry and the country's leading research universities.
More than 500 contractors worked on both large and small aspects of Apollo. For example, the Boeing Company was the prime contractor for the first stage of the Saturn rocket, North American Aviation for the second stage, and the Douglas Aircraft Corporation for the third stage. The Rocketdyne Division of North American Aviation was responsible for the rocket engines and International Business Machines for the instruments. These prime contractors, with more than 250 subcontractors, provided millions of parts and components for use in the Saturn launch vehicle, all meeting exacting specifications for performance and reliability.
