This was in the news last year, but the loss of an instrument in 1980 kept them from being sure. Now they have been able to confirm it using other on board instruments. The probe is now 17 light hours from Earth. That's about three times the distance to Pluto.

This is an idiotic definition of "interstellar space", as if the inner Oort Cloud isn't a part of the domain of the sun.
