NASA's Voyager 2 probe may be close to joining its sibling and entering interstellar space. The vessel has been detecting a five percent increase in cosmic rays since late August, suggesting that it's close to crossing the heliopause (the edge of the solar wind bubble, aka the heliosphere) and entering the interstellar realm. Voyager 1 saw similar increases in May 2012, so its fellow spacecraft may be in for a repeat.

The New Horizons probe is getting pretty far out into the solar system — don’t know if it’ll be the next to escape but it’s got a chance...

It might come back in 1000 years destroy three Klingon war birds and threaten the universe.
