NASA's Voyager 1, which has been transmitting data from space for nearly 50 years, is experiencing a communication glitch that may end its ability to send coherent data back to Earth. The spacecraft, which has traveled deeper into space than any other human-made object, has been spewing out garbled binary code since November. Despite the challenges of fixing a craft 15 billion miles away, NASA is working to address the issue, recognizing the immense value of Voyager 1's role in research. Voyager 1's unexpected longevity and its emotional significance to humanity make the potential loss a significant one, while its twin craft, Voyager 2, remains operational.
