  "account": "As of mid-November 2026, NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft will be situated beyond one light-day from Earth, according to the NASA Science website. In simple terms, this means radio signals transmitted from our planet would take around 24 hours to reach the probe, with a full day's delay for any response to return. To help students grasp this astronomical distance, NASA has crafted a set of engaging math problems that break down the concept of a light-day using skills that can be easily incorporated into a classroom curriculum.",
