After Months of Gibberish, Voyager 1 Is Communicating Well Again
Quick Glance: Voyager 1: Successful Communication Restoration
  • After months of nonsensical transmissions, Voyager 1 is finally communicating clearly with Earth.

  • NASA has resolved issues with the probe and obtained clear information on its health.

  • Voyager 1 has made significant scientific discoveries but is significantly affected by the harsh space environment.

  • Despite the temporary repair of communication issues, NASA scientists are aware that the spacecraft won't last indefinitely.

Quick Glance: Voyager 1 Sends Usable Data to Earth Again
  • Launched in 1977, Voyager 1's mission is to explore interstellar space.

  • After sending unreadable data for months, a fix was found for the issue.

  • Experts repaired a faulty chip in the Flight Data Subsystem to resume sending readable data.

  • The mission remains iconic, but the battery's longevity is uncertain as the probe continues its journey through the Milky Way.
