NASA engineers sent a "poke" to the Voyager 1 probe and received a promising response after a five-month communication issue. The decoded signal from the spacecraft's flight data system is being analyzed to potentially find the source of the ongoing problem, but devising a solution will take time due to the spacecraft's distance from Earth. Voyager 1 and its twin, Voyager 2, are the farthest and longest-operating spacecraft in history, providing valuable insights about our solar system and beyond despite encountering unexpected issues as they age.

Voyager 1, the most distant spacecraft, is experiencing communication issues due to a glitch in its 46-year-old flight data system. Engineers are struggling to resolve the problem, which affects the transmission of data to Earth. This is the latest in a series of communication issues with the aging spacecraft, but despite the challenges, the Voyager missions continue to provide valuable data, even as they approach their 50th year of operation.

NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft, currently the farthest spacecraft from Earth, has experienced a computer glitch that is disrupting communication 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, and their unexpectedly long lifespans have provided valuable insights about our solar system. The current glitch, reminiscent of the film "Groundhog Day," has caused the flight data system to be stuck on auto-repeat, preventing the transmission of science and engineering data. NASA engineers are investigating the cause and potential solutions, but the process could take weeks.
