That was a brilliant piece of adaptive information technology - over 15 billion miles away! Well done to NASA, Voyager 1 is an incredible feat of space exploration! Thank you for this video.

[@mattpike7268]

Nasa absolutely has the best engineers in the world. Software or hardware.

[@Redsince66]

Pity we’re under funding them.

[@ronwade2206]

Motorola made it.

[@dilldowschwagginz2674]

That used to be true. Currently the best and brightest engineers are working for private sector companies (SpaceX, Tesla, Boston Dynamics, etc)

[@stephenburrows4250]

Then why did they never design, build, and fly a reusable rocket? They are definetely excellent but best..., I'm not so sure.

[@professorg8383]

@@dilldowschwagginz2674 I don't think that is true. the engineers at SpaceX don't hold a candle to the NASA guys because they have the wrong kind of leadership. A lot of the old time guys have left or been fired by SpaceX. That's because Musk operates by his own set of rules, which are frankly not good engineering!

[@keithrosenberg5486]

You did not say what JPL did to get Voyager I going again. Then you went on and on and on and on about how good Voyager I has been for us.

[@ScottElliott888]

Because it's AI generated rehashed old news.

[@dilldowschwagginz2674]

Because they haven't succeeded yet. This is just a fluff piece for NASA apparently.

[@tonyclif1]

If you actually read the video title, and watch the video, there is no claim that they've fixed it yet, but that they've worked out what the problem is.

[@leinad8323]

Isn't it obvious... They did "¹⁰¹⁰¹⁰¹⁰⁰¹¹⁰"

[@Mrshoujo]

They sent a "poke" & V1's flight computer did a memory dump.

[@Jack908r]

It launched in 1977. The fact its still going is mind boggling in itself.

[@zanpsimer7685]

I was 16 when it launched. I’m elderly now. It’s hard to wrap my head around.

[@chuckylugs9607]

A truly monumental effort from all you ‘brilliant’ engineers and technician’s at NASA for repairing our dear Voyager 1 space probe for us all to enjoy this epic and continuous journey through stellar space 💫❤

[@ronwade2206]

My Uncle designed and built that communications package at Motorola GED in Scottsdale. He told us very little about it until after he had retired. He told us the only thing that could stop it from transmitting was space junk early on then later small meteorites.

[@dilldowschwagginz2674]

Or a circuit could fail after 50 years of use in the harsh, frigid environment of deep space. There's a number of things that could eventually go wrong. Meteorites are the least of the worry

[@lylecampbell8288]

Have they been able to build a simulator for the FDS? I hope they had schematics and code for it still available. If so they should be able to simulate it in software. Then they could try to reproduce the glitch by deliberately corrupting memory in the simulation. Once they could do that they could try simulated solutions on earth safely and quickly before trying anything promising on Voyager. This is the way I'd go, at least. I hope they've been trying something like this or perhaps better.

[@electriccoconut]

I bet nobody thought of that!

[@birrextio6544]

The serial number on the memory card was 003 so maybe they have one on earth. If that is true for all other hardware they should be able to test it out. But bit errors on memory is easy to find just by looking at the contents and checksums, the problem is how to load new software without putting that on a bad memory and brick it all. My guess is that the software is located in the cpu unit and not the memory card. When I was building my first computer there was 16KB static ram for the system software and dynamic ram on the memory board. The have probably a failsafe system on proms too just in case of a completely mess up.

[@johng1758]

I saw Apollo 13 to

[@Jim-fe2xz]

I've been retired for over 13 years. I worked with some of the best and brightest at the time but knew younger even more sharp young people were coming aboard. I can only imagine what my old job would like with such fine minds in place. But on a serious note it's good that Veeger found it's creator and the world is safe!

[@mattpike7268]

Please cover Webb's recent observations of the cigar galaxy 🍻👍 Edit- you already did!! This is the second time I've done that 🤣

[@belinda_curtis]

Brilliant, I have been waiting to hear an update on this

[@gregmellott5715]

How much radiation has the system already had to deal with? And how much was it expected to survive when it was made? Should we be amazed it has done what it has so far? And just how much better can we make stuff hardened against radiation damage now, and what does that bodes for other ventures?

[@jennyjohns2012]

Awesome, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that usable data is discovered…🧢🧢

[@DavoShed]

1970’s weren’t that bad. That’s where I grew up. My memory is still ok 🤠

[@don63]

The biggest challenge was the creators werent around anymore.

[@davidmacphee3549]

We know light from the sun reaches Earth in about 8 minutes. This baby is 22 hours away. Yikes !

[@saugatabhattacharya7188]

Brilliant ! Hoping for more good news

[@rosbiffy]

It is astonishing that Voyager is still functioning given the technology of the 70's and its age. It would be so good to hear what Voyager what kind of data are being returned. It would be good to know how the faulty memory is being addressed. Sadly, the trite voice over offers little actual information. Which direction is it going? Why was this direction chosen? What data gathering technologies were fitted? What is the most significant discovery it has made? Is there a substantive different between space at 1 billion miles and 15 billion miles?

[@TwZlr.]

Did your editors know that you used artificial images of the Cassini spacecraft? It was the size of a standard school bus. Recycling content is something that you need to do sometimes as evidence of your position. You must always cite your sources.

I've just asked Pi AI. He told me that communications with Voyager 1 have already been restored to normal. 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@turboomni848]

Why does Nasa show many times in videos the Voyager traveling forward with it's antenna pointing in the direction of where it's going?

[@ronaldlebeck9577]

I think people doing the animations have no clue what they're doing, let alone have any understanding of how things actually work. I wouldn't doubt they were born 20 years after the Voyagers launched. As for the NASA images, they're probably just stock photos and film footage. The rest of the graphics have no bearing on this -- like the woman looking at a holographic image of text characters flowing top down (I did that in my Turbo Pascal programming class way back in college -- might look cool, but has no practical use).

BRAVO NASA

[@biologymistry1238]

Great

[@gasperstarina9837]

Did Voyagers had any chance to have packed more energy (fision) back then? Ik that can be problem because everything have to be lighter and smaller bit were there options we would still have lots of energy? How it would be done with todays tech ?

[@joelaichner3025]

What happened to voyager 2?

[@billdomitilli8125]

At some point, the received signal will be below the lowest receiver noise floor possible...then game ends.

[@jamesofcork]

Just a comment - 15 BILLION miles (commentary) does not equate to 36 MILLION kilometers (displayed in the video). Great achievement eithar way.

[@jamespepper8671]

The power source of voyager is a plutonium RTG, it's half life is 24300 years.

[@ronaldlebeck9577]

The type of RTG both Voyagers have produces 158 Watts of power. The half-life of Pu-238 (what is used in the Voyagers' RTG) is only 87.7 years. Both probes are running low enough on power now that some of the instruments and systems have had to be turned off.

[@jamespepper8671]

@@ronaldlebeck9577 it is not nuclear, it is the heat that the isotope creates, running the power through a mercury loop, so it is not a matter of half life. so it is not running out of power

[@alekz1958]

Could there ever be a voyager 3 that would use 2020 technology to extend past the 50 year timeframe of voyage 1/2 to give future generations a look into 2070 and beyond

[@Robbie-sk6vc]

They never thought it would last this long. With enough time and money, anything would be possible. But space is a very harsh place.

[@DianaHernandez-zz8sy]

Voyager 1 and 2 will still be traveling thru space, when all of humanity has become extinct.

[@dilldowschwagginz2674]

I'm sure they have a few functional Voyager operating system clones to tinker with until they get it right. That makes fixing software issues from Earth 100x easier.. its not like these guys are simply reading literature on the Voyager computer and trying to reverse engineer it

[@michaelccopelandsr7120]

My idea so I get to name it! What I mean is, no one has claimed it so I'm officially calling, "Dibs." Voyager 1 is now in the, "Milky Way's interstellar time" or "Mikey's Time." "V-ger's" message has sped up now that it's outside our Sun's, "Time Bubble," or, "Terran Time." It will be faster, still, when "V-ger" sends a message from beyond the Milky Way's time bubble. Then there's Outside the Local Group time bubble. So on and so on until we get outside any influence and into the, "True Interstellar Time Standard." Or, "T.I..." ;-P Now that "V-ger" is outside our Sun's reach, in interstellar space, it's now in the Milky Way's faster moving, Interstellar Time or "Mikey's Time." This can be proven by turning off everything except its clock and transmitter. Have "V-ger" read time for as long as possible. They WILL show the flow of time speeds up the further away you get from any celestial bodies. Until you reach the Milky Way's time standard or "Mikey's Time." •Our sun's time bubble: "Terran Time" we know and have measured. In a lifetime, our head is one second younger than our feet. •Milky Way's time bubble or "Mikey's Time." The rate/flow of TIME outside any influence but within the Milky Way: We just got there and are still figuring what the difference is. I'd say time will increase in speed, now and until V-ger is outside the Ort cloud. •Local Group's time bubble or the rate/flow of time outside of any influence but within the Local Group: Name still open and unknown. Wild guess .08 P-22% to a couple seconds faster, maybe. Used just for reference. You know what I mean. •Outside any influence in the, "True Interstellar Time Standard." (or T.I...) ;-P This name is NOT up for grabs. The rate/flow of time is fastest here. (Time flows fastest here so it's best to use a motor boat and hold tight. Always applies when you're in T.I....) ;-P A minute is a minute in all. It's the rate/flow I'm talking about. Heck, rivers of time flowing differently might explain dark energy and dark matter. Difference in time could explain great attractor, too. Fun to think about, isn't it? Anyway, the "Milky Way's Interstellar Time Standard," will be known as, "Mikey's Time." Pass it on, please and thank you.

Voyager 1 may have been intercepted by an intelligent object, and these messages are written in a computer language we can't understand. Save a copy, and let AI decipher it later.

[@SgtWayneNilesLSA]

I guess that all of these super bright and highly qualified people that found and identified the problem don't really understand what they were doing. Don't forget the possibility that it was interfered with by an intelligent pink banana that's controlled by King Kong from a submarine hiding under Antarctic ice. How could you possibly forget that? I'm not even bringing up the Muppet involvement.
