The twin Voyager spacecraft, which launched in 1977, are our ambassadors to the rest of the Milky Way, destined to continue orbiting the center of our galaxy for billions of years after they stop communicating with Earth. On Aug. 25, 2012, Voyager 1 became the first human-made object to enter interstellar space, and Voyager 2 is expected to cross over in the next few years. At age 40, the Voyagers are the farthest and longest-operating spacecraft and still have plenty more to discover. This poster captures the spirit of exploration, the vastness of space and the wonder that has fueled this ambitious journey to the outer planets and beyond.

Born to Run

for everyone that’s ever asked me how to enjoy running: all you have to do is break through

(via runningonsmoothies)

I only reblog a few things a year but this quote from “Born to Run” is pretty dear to my heart. I hope everyone has a chance to “break through” be it in running, cycling, thru-hiking or whatever. I seriously think these things saved my life or at the very least a more depressing version where I hated everything and drank myself into complacency. Don’t get me wrong, I still find nearly everything mildly abrasive, but at least I have running and trails.
