Using a radio that has not been used since 1981, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has successfully reestablished communication with a spaceship that is now located 24 billion kilometers away from Earth.
In the event that you were unaware of how fantastic the Voyager 1 was, you should ready yourself. What is the Voyager 1 spacecraft that NASA is using?
This handy vessel has been flying through space with Voyager 2 for more than 47 years at this point, and the two of them are the only two spacecraft that are currently operational in interstellar space.
Over the last several days, Voyager 1 has been quiet, which has caused NASA to experience a degree of fear.
Despite this, they have been successful in reestablishing communication with the radio transmitter, which is located aboard the spacecraft and is separated from Earth by more than 24 billion kilometers (15 billion miles).
