Everyone’s favorite space probes, the Voyagers, are back in the headlines again, and recently it looked like we almost lost communication with Voyager 1 for good.

Back on December 12, 2023, NASA reported that Voyager 1’s flight data system, which consists of three onboard computers, started sending binary gibberish data back to Earth; a repeating pattern of ones and zeros that made no sense to the engineers.

When the glitch first occurred, engineers could still send signals to the distant probe and could tell it was still operating, but something was clearly wrong.
