Engineers have determined why NASA's Voyager 1 probe has been transmitting gibberish for nearly five months, raising hopes of recovering humanity's most distant spacecraft.

Two of the four science instruments aboard the Voyager 1 spacecraft are now returning usable data after months of transmitting only gibberish, NASA scientists have announced.

That’s because the Voyager team at the sprawling Southern California lab on April 20 finally heard back from Voyager 1 again, in a way that was more than just gibberish. It wasn’t ET calling home.

The problems first arose when Voyager 1 started sending back gibberish in May of 2022. NASA fixed the issue, but then the glitching resumed back in December , leaving astronomers scratching their ...
