Revision as of 19:32, 14 December 2021 by 172.70.90.91 (talk) (The awful and seemingly arbitrary commas annoyed me. But it really needed a rewrite beyond that. Actually why is this text actually here and not on the main-explain page? Given that it is, however, I'll edit it.)

The Voyager spacecraft has reached the outer boundaries of the Solar System which is nominally divided into sections such as the 'heliosphere', although there are no actual definitive demarcations and there are both arbitrary thresholds and transient fluctuations. If this were a typical real digital image with insufficient depth of subtlety, brightness gradation would show up as bands of intensity joined by digital compression effects, in a 'darker to lighter' progression just like in this graphic. The joke here is that those artefact gradations actually exist in space!
