Someone tell me if this question is a little silly.
How many carbon atoms away is voyager two (based on the august 2023 estimate of 20 billion kilometers)?

Voyager two is one of the two farthest manmade objects from Earth launched in 1977.
The answer is incorrect.
Also, did you mean to add a question? I'm not sure if I should add the answer for my question here or wait for a question first.
