Heroic dog stories are so wonderful. It should make everyone love and appreciate dogs.

Something else wrong in this strip. A 21 month mission would probably only get you out to Mars, if you hurried. Outer solar system takes years. (Probably 21 years was meant.)

Maybe it completed the 21-month planned mission and just kept going and communicating until 2003.
