TL;DR Summary

NASA's Voyager mission engineers are working on two initiatives to prolong the lifespan of the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 spacecraft. One effort involves addressing fuel residue buildup in the thrusters, which are used to keep the antennas pointed at Earth. The team is also uploading a software patch to prevent a glitch that occurred on Voyager 1 last year. These measures aim to ensure the continued exploration of interstellar space by the Voyager spacecraft for several more years.
