Details of the Voyager Mission: http://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/
An Ambient Space Instrumental! In this song you will actually hear Voyager 1 Communicating with Earth in the beginning of the song, and at the end...you'll hear the sound of Interstellar Space! Voyage of Discovery ~ since their 1977 launches, they each are much farther away from Earth and the sun than Pluto.

In August 2012, Voyager 1 made the historic entry into interstellar space, the region between stars, filled with material ejected by the death of nearby stars millions of years ago. Scientists hope to learn more about this region when Voyager 2, in the “heliosheath" the outermost layer of the heliosphere where the solar wind is slowed by the pressure of interstellar medium also reaches interstellar space. Both spacecraft are still sending scientific information about their surroundings through the Deep Space Network, or DSN.
Strictly speaking, the plasma wave instrument does not detect sound. Instead it senses waves of electrons in the ionized gas or "plasma" that Voyager travels through. No human ear could hear these plasma waves. Nevertheless, because they occur at audio frequencies, between a few hundred and a few thousand hertz, "we can play the data through a loudspeaker and listen. The pitch and frequency tell us about the density of gas surrounding the spacecraft.
