O, Pioneer At a distance of roughly 7.6 billion miles (or 11 light-hours) from Earth, it is believed that the Pioneer 10 space probe has now reached the point, due to distance and a weakening power source, where its signals will no longer be able send signals capable of reaching its home planet. Originally designed for a 21-month mission, Pioneer 10 has sent back information for more than 30 years, since it's launch on March 2, 1972.
