It's honestly insanely impressive that these things are still working so long after being built and so far from us. One of mankind's greatest achievements and even after they die they'll still be out there somewhere floating around. Maybe long after we're gone and the Earth is swallowed up by the sun. The last piece of proof that we even existed at all.
The engineering foresight that went into it is impressive. I wish we saw more of that in the world.
