Voyager 1, the farthest human-made craft from Earth, is sending back data on plasma waves, magnetic fields, and space particles from over 15 billion miles away, conducting normal science operations.
Despite being launched in 1977 for a five-year mission, Voyager 1 continues to function after 47 years, with NASA consistently extending its operation through innovative solutions.
NASA plans to resynchronize Voyager 1's timekeeping software and conduct maintenance on its digital tape recorder, focusing on minor tasks to ensure continued functionality.
