Abstract: | The Voyager 1 spacecraft has passed an important milestone. As is reported in papers in this issue, Voyager 1 has crossed the termination shock of the solar wind, where the wind abruptly decelerates to begin its merger into the local interstellar medium. The termination shock provided surprises; the region beyond is truly uncharted territory. |
