It's unsolvable largely because of a poorly worded executive order from a former President that made it impossible to try to recover/recycle used fuel.

And lets ignore the fact that there are designs out there that produce waste that is less dangerous, but got outlawed by by whiny, small brained tree huggers.

The situation IS solvable. If only we were allowed to solve it.

Ok, this is a sign that I have been up too long. I HAVE to nitpick this one.

Sigh. Generally, if you have to use a really big number to describe something, you're not using the right units. In this case, Voyager I is approximately 104.28 astronomical units from the Sun. In comparison, Pluto is about 39.5 to 49.3 AU from the Sun. Light takes about 14 days to get from Earth to the spacecraft
Mixed your units, did you? It's not quite 14 HOURS to Voyager 1. Thirteen point 9 something, without getting out a calculator.
