What is the telescope/probe/satellite that is flying out of the galaxy?

What is the telescope/probe/satellite that is flying out of the galaxy? I know that the Hubble only goes around earth, but i believe there is one that is flying outward.|||None are leaving the galaxy anytime soon. (Our galaxy is HUGE compared to how fast our probes can go). Voyager 1, Voyager 2, Pioneer 10, and Pioneer 11 are "escaping the solar system," and it is probably one of them that you heard about.

|||on another note, people commonly assume we are at the middle of our galaxy, this is not correct. we are actually close to the edge.

Check out this site: http://www.heavens-above.com/solar-escap鈥?/a>|||i cant remember what its called but i know what your talking about. i remember seeing something about it on the show that comes on the history channel. the universe. its supposed to take a really long time like really long. and may not even make it. but sorry cant remember what its called. sorry cant help ya more just wanted you to know your not the only one who has heard of it.|||I dont think they voyager and pioneer will actually fly out of the galaxy. They were built to last, and they will most likely last 20-40 years more.|||Voyager 1 and 2 are heading out of the solar system, one of them took a photo of the earth sometime back and was just a speck of light . They may not make it out of the galaxy tho, it's a long way before they can gather energy from another star. So they may not even make it to the next sun which is light years away.
