As humanity’s furthest reach into the Universe so far, the two Voyager spacecraft’s well-being is of utmost importance to many. Although we know that there will be an end to any science…

    And further down:

    Unfortunately, if the one-way speed of light is anisotropic, the correct time dilation factor becomes {isplaystyle {athcal {T}}={rac {1}{amma (1-appa v/c)}}}, with the anisotropy parameter κ between -1 and +1.[17] This introduces a new linear term, {isplaystyle im {eta o 0}{athcal {T}}=1+appa eta +O(eta ^{2})} (here {isplaystyle eta =v/c}), meaning time dilation can no longer be ignored at small velocities, and slow clock-transport will fail to detect this anisotropy. Thus it is equivalent to Einstein synchronization.
