Interesting tidbit to blow your mind.

Voyager 1, and Voyager 2 - over 40 years ago - each had state of the art guidance and robotics systems.

Jim Bell states in his book The Interstellar Age, (2016) that :
each of their computers were less powerful than the current day, average, remote key fob..

Think about that - and sending the signals to the system millions and millions of miles away, to the end of the our planetary system and beyond. !!
