Trajectory from Horizons state vectors
Voyager 1's position is interpolated between 741 heliocentric state-vector samples from JPL Horizons that run through 2049-11-05. Past the last sample the marker holds its final position.
Launched September 1977. Farthest human-made object from Earth. Crossed into interstellar space in 2012. Still communicating with Earth.
One record per aspect. The origin says what kind of thing each value is; the source says where it came from; the limit says what it cannot tell you.

Voyager 1: mass 7.219 × 10^2 kg. These values are bundled with the object record and drive the rendered size.

The short description and the fact list are written by the Space Time authors for orientation. They are not quoted from a catalog field and carry no citation of their own.
Trajectory coverage: 1977-09-06 to 2049-11-05 (741 samples). Outside that window the marker holds its last known position.
