Voyager 1 spacecraft phones home with transmitter that hasn’t been used since 1981
NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft recently switched to a backup radio transmitter, unused since 1981, following communication issues.
On Oct. 16, a command to turn on a heater triggered the spacecraft’s fault protection system, causing it to conserve power and switch off its primary X-band transmitter.
Communication was lost but resumed on Oct. 24 when NASA connected through the lower-power S-band transmitter.
The team is now investigating what prompted the fault protection, as Voyager 1 should have had sufficient power, Space.com has reported.
