Voyager 1's Mysterious Communication Issues Puzzle NASA

NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft, currently the farthest spacecraft from Earth, has experienced a computer glitch that is causing a communication breakdown with its mission team. Engineers are working to solve the issue as the aging spacecraft explores uncharted cosmic territory. Voyager 1 and its twin, Voyager 2, are the only spacecraft to operate beyond the heliosphere. The glitch involves the flight data system, which is stuck on auto-repeat, preventing the transmission of science and engineering data. The mission team is investigating the cause and potential solutions, but the process could take weeks. Despite the challenges, the Voyager probes continue to provide valuable insights into our solar system and beyond.
