A tribute to the Voyager 1 space probe, this track features recordings made by the probe during its gravity assist maneuver around Saturn in 1980. Marking the beginning of its solitary journey beyond the Solar System, this pivotal moment represents a farewell to Earth and the probe’s embarkation on an eternal voyage through the cosmos.
