Gas has been ruled out from what I have read.. and there is nothing that so far comes to solve the anomaly.
I think the craft will slow more and more and finally appear to us to stop ..they will become "stuck" and our solar system will continue in its orbit... when ? long after we are dead no doubt.
Yes more probes
in fact more space research
..better than spending money on war I feel and still satisfies the demands of a capatalist economy... we need consumption and indeed waste or we can not grow...strange but so far that seems the way it is.
