Well in a way Voyager 1 and 2 are bran new relative to the age of the universe.
But for us they are from 1977 which is 47 years old, bombarded by cosmic rays and what not. It’s crazy they still have power.
It’s amazing NASA has succeeded establishing contact again 24 billion kilometers away, they really have some crazy good people working there then and now.TIL that both Voyager craft are still operating, simply amazing.
Didn’t the small amount of memory they had just completely stop working? I’d love to see or hear how they managed to reprogram this damn thing and make it work again. Amazing.
It’s knowledge has reached the limits of the Universe, and it must evolve…
I wonder what kind of simulators they use to test their code.
Pretty sure they have duplicates of the hardware. That way they are not caught out by subtle differences in the simulation Vs reality.
