Voyager with the most problems.
Voyager with the most problems.
Souce
In mid-December, NASA announced that it had a problem with one of the three computers on Voyager 1, it was called the flight data systems computer, the spacecraft receives and executes commands sent from Earth, without However, this computer did not communicate properly and is not capable of sending scientific or engineering data to Earth.

Communicating with them and solving the problem is proving to be very complicated. At the time of writing this publication, there is still no correct response from the ship. At the moment, this is how things are, the ship is sending some repetitive commands because it is already starting to malfunction and The technicians are trying to solve this problem and it is not the first problem that this ship has had.

These ships have three computers and some no longer work to save energy and that computer that began to work on its own was the one that broke the information and sent the crazy data, why did this happen, why was a computer activated that had been there for years? It did not work, because to this day it is still a mystery, but the ship once again sent us correct information and data about what it was finding on its journey to the stars, that breakdown in 2022 was in May and was repaired in August so The current one of December 2023 may not be repaired until February-March.

Keep in mind that the ships' computers have about 69 kb of memory, that is ridiculous, that is 100,000 times less memory than that of a normal smartphone, the thing is that Voyager's computers have less memory than the key fob that opens the door of a car and yet they continue to function and continue to send us essential data to understand issues such as the density of particles and radiation in Interstellar space.

And like these ancient systems suspended in space, there must be many others. It is incredible that with so little memory they can keep sending data, although it is also incredible why they fail to update them.
In case it doesn't work anymore, how would they get out of orbit?

Hello, it is impossible to update it, they are thousands of kilometers away, moving away faster and faster.
What needs to be done is to send more modern ones in many directions of the cosmos, thus advancing more objectives.
Thanks for the information!
