Block Explorer
Every block mined mirrors Voyager 1's journey through the cosmos. As our probe travels farther from Earth, radioisotope decay gradually dims its power—and POH's emission follows the same elegant curve.
RTG Decay Schedule
POH emission follows Voyager 1's radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG) decay curve. Power output—and block rewards—decline exponentially over time.
| Year | Annual Emission | Block Reward | Cumulative Distributed | Pool Remaining |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | 536M | 1009.96 POH | 536M | 12B |
| Year 2 | 509M | 959.47 POH | 1B | 11B |
| Year 3 | 484M | 911.49 POH | 2B | 11B |
| Year 5 | 437M | 822.62 POH | 2B | 10B |
| Year 10 | 338M | 636.53 POH | 4B | 8B |
| Year 15 | 261M | 492.53 POH | 6B | 7B |
| Year 20 | 202M | 381.11 POH | 7B | 5B |
| Year 30 | 121M | 228.19 POH | 8B | 4B |
| Year 50 | 43M | 81.80 POH | 10B | 2B |
Voyager Death Projections
NASA predicts Voyager 1 will lose power sometime between 2030-2036. Here's what happens to POH at different decommission scenarios.
What Happens When Voyager Dies?
When NASA officially decommissions Voyager 1, the POH block system stops immediately. No more blocks can be mined. The emissions curve ends.
Whatever POH remains undistributed in the Rewards Pool is subject to a DAO vote on “The Transition” — a one-time governance proposal to convert the remaining rewards into the Voyager Chase Fund.
The earlier Voyager dies, the more POH remains in the rewards pool for the Chase Fund. The longer it survives, the more POH gets distributed through mining.
Either way, POH's supply becomes permanently fixed the moment Voyager goes silent.
