NASA mistakenly severs communication to Voyager 2 | Thankfully the probe regularly phones home to fix this sort of mess::Thankfully the probe regularly phones home to fix this sort of mess
Would be cool to launch a satellite between Voyager and Earth that could act as a communication relay the farther away Voyager flies.
And then send another one to relay wit that one
To be honest: keeping the chain alive would be great!
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain
By my napkin math, from 32 billion km away, a 2deg error means Voyager 2 is pointing to a spot 1.12 billion km away from Earth (at right angles). That’s roughly the distance from Earth to Saturn 😅
The space org added that Voyager 2’s trajectory is expected to remain unchanged
Yeah, if that starts changing then something very serious is going on.

From 32 billion kilometres away, to be misaligned by only two degrees is impressive.
Explain your joke please
Not everything is a joke…
