"NASA Pinpoints Voyager 1's Data Transmission Glitch"

NASA engineers have identified a small portion of corrupted memory as the cause of Voyager 1's transmission issues, preventing the Flight Data System (FDS) from operating normally. The spacecraft, located 15 billion miles from Earth, has been beaming unreadable data for nearly five months. Despite the challenges posed by its distance and communication delays, engineers are optimistic about finding a way for the FDS to operate without the unusable memory hardware, allowing Voyager 1 to resume transmitting science and engineering data.
