Without doing calculations, just checking the internet, I found the following speeds at infinity:
16.62 km/s Voyager 1 (Source) 13.** km/s New Horizons (Same source) The New Horizons figures of course still depend on future trajectory correction maneuvers etc Gut feeling (how scientific) tells me that Voyager 2 is somewhat slower than Voyager 1, and the Pioneers behind New Horizons -------------------- |
