After 40 years of use Voyager is still running strong. Apparently the main attitude thrusters are degrading but back up thrusters that baveing been used in 37 years are being used instead to extend the mission use by another year or two. https://www.nasa.gov/fea...es-up-thrusters-after-37 DeAgostini kit builds:

Something quite moving when you think of this poor old lonely space craft moving further and further away from earth. Incredible that they can still keep it alive and going. Happy Modelling
