NASA's Voyager Found a 30k-50k Kelvin "Wall" at the Edge of Solar System

news.ycombinator.com James Felton 2026-03-13 03:24:05

In 1977, NASA launched the Voyager probes to study the Solar System's edge, and the interstellar medium between the stars. One by one, they both hit the "wall of fire" at the boundaries of our home system, measuring temperatures of 30,000-50,000 kelvin (54,000-90,000 degrees Fahrenheit) on their passage through it. There are a few ways you could define the edge of the Solar System – for instance, where the planets end, or at the Oort cloud, the boundary of the Sun's gravitational influence wher

And yet, quite surprisingly, WhatsApp managed to stay mostly unspoiled, even though bits of Instagram and Facebook (like Stories and Communities) kept sneaking in.

Dell 16 Plus 2-in-1 review: Technically proficient but lacking soul

In previous years, the Dell 16 Plus 2-in-1 probably would have been called an Inspiron.

While I still think Dell’s choice to ditch the iconic XPS tag is a mistake, streamlining its portfolio makes a lot of sense, especially for people simply looking to buy a new laptop.
