If something the size of a voyager, presumably not radiating much radio energy, were to enter our solar system from an alien culture, is the possibility of us detecting it more than miniscule ? I just wonder it would burn up in the sun unnoticed. If this happens, it would make all Carl Sagan's artistic work of a man and a woman rather pointless, and just a waste of NASA's budget.
