The Included Inks
The Voyager 1 four pack includes the following ink colors: Golden Record, Pale Blue Dot, Jupiter Flyby, and Interstellar Space. Each color is unique, because they are color changing. We have received many questions as to what that phrase means exactly, so we decided test the ink and see what we could find. We discovered that color changing, meant just that. Each of these colors will go down wet one color, and then dry to different color. Below is a breakdown describing the properties of each ink, as well as pictures showing the different colors. We did our best but to capture the color changes but because the ink dries fast we were not able to capture the full color change.
Golden Record
Golden Record is a orange gold ink that goes down as a red-orange, but dries to golden orange. In addition to the color change, Golden Record has some beautiful shading, that will really shine in broader tipped pens. As with the entire Voyager 1 set, Golden Record is a fast drying ink.

Pale Blue Dot
Pale Blue Dot is a pale blue ink that goes down as an almost sapphire blue, and then dries to a soft almost mint blue. Also, you can get some dramatic shading depending on the nib that you use. Not pictured here is the red sheen that you can get depending on the paper used and the wetness of the nib.

Jupiter Fly By
Jupiter Fly By is probably the most dramatic of the color changers. Initially it is a rust red ink, but then it dries to a dusty brown. You can produce some dramatic shading, from a deep brown to a light dusty brown depending on the paper and nib used.

Interstellar Space
Interstellar Space is a moss green ink that has a subtle color change that is hard to show. Initially when wet, Interstellar Space is a dark almost forest green. Once it dries, however, it is better described as a moss green. As you can see in the pictures, Interstellar Space can produce some intense shading.
