Reply to comment by i_live_in_sweden in NASA's Artemis 1 Orion spacecraft flies past record distance set by Apollo 13 by EricFromOuterSpace

While it will definitely be more notable when actual astronauts are on board, the record to beat is still Apollo 13. The article makes it clear - we're talking about the furthest distance traveled by a spacecraft designed to carry astronauts. Voyager cannot carry astronauts. Comparing Orion to Voyager is apples to oranges.

No mission currently launched or planned will ever overtake Voyager 1.

New Horizons space probe will never catch up to either Voyage.
