NASA quickly realized, however, that to preserve energy, Voyager 1 had begun sending signals at a lower rate on the ...

The 47-year-old Voyager 1 spacecraft is back in touch with NASA — but not out of the woods — after a technical issue caused a days-long communications blackout with the historic mission ...

NASA lost contact with the interstellar Voyager 1 spacecraft for nearly a week after a technical glitch shut off the probe's main transmitter. Using Voyager's weaker backup transmitter ...

Following recent communication issues, NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft resorted to using a backup radio transmitter that has been inactive since 1981. The interstellar explorer experienced a brief ...

Voyager 1 can’t seem to catch a break. The interstellar traveler recently recovered from a thruster glitch that nearly ended its mission, and now NASA’s aging probe stopped sending data to ...

NASA reconnected with its Voyager 1 spacecraft more than 15 billion miles from Earth by flipping the switch on a backup radio not used on the spacecraft since 1981. The space agency reported ...

NASA explained: The flight team suspected that Voyager 1’s fault protection system was triggered twice more and that it turned off the X-band transmitter and switched to a second radio ...

Voyager 1 has two radio transmitters. NASA's 47-year-old Voyager 1 spacecraft recently established contact with Earth after a brief halt with the help of a radio transmitter that has not been used ...

Voyager 1 is limping after suffering a series of radio system failures, leaving the probe with a tenuous connection to Earth via a low-power radio it hasn't used for 43 years. NASA first realized ...

PASADENA, Calif. – NASA says it has reestablished communication with its Voyager 1 spacecraft after a brief outage from more than 15 billion miles away from Earth. The spacecraft, launched from ...

Nasa's Voyager 1 spacecraft is currently exploring where nothing from Earth has ever flown before. Launched in 1977, it's now on a mission to go as far away from the solar system as possible ...
