"Voyager 1, which carries three 1802 processors, is currently 10.2
billion miles from Earth, making it the most distant man-made object.
It left our solar system long ago and is hurtling toward interstellar
space, where it may someday catch the eye of an extraterrestrial
civilization."

I thought this designation of "most distant man-made object" would
apply to Pioneer 10, launched in 1972?
