Journey 1. Do You Remember? Inquiry initiated NASA In 1977. 45 years ago. Today, Voyager 1 It traveled about 23.3 billion kilometers from Earth. Outside our solar system. In addition, the search continues to collect and return scientific data from the interstellar space for receiving and executing commands. In short, it works completely normally. About …

Because NASA engineers Those still on the mission noticed a strange thing. A system they call Attitude Control – one that controls the orientation of the craft – began sending back data from AACS, to experts. Telemetry “Invalid”. From “Data reflecting any condition that appears to be randomly generated or may be AACS”. As if our behavior was perfectly normal, but ours Electroencephalogram Showed Defects.

Voyager 1 did not install itself “Safe World”. His signal did not weaken either.

Therefore, engineers need to determine if the problem is coming directly from AACS. Or perhaps one of the systems involved in creating and sending Telemetry data. Once the source of the problem is found, a solution must be found. Or the way to adapt to it. Until then, it is difficult to estimate the potential impact Continuation of the Voyager mission. This is beyond the imagination of NASA experts.
