Guys, voyager just got repaired. Let’s be happy for it 🎉
"The aliens will no longer come to Earth. Because humanity is wicked. The alien, who has witnessed the atrocities committed by humanity, has no intention of befriending humanity. They would deem us unworthy of their friendship"
We don't build stuff like we used to. Major appliances here on Earth don't even last 6 months before something breaks. Maybe NASA should lead the way in making refrigerators great again.
That's not true. There are plenty of Voyager era appliances that are broken down now. Need I remind you, car companies were making 7.5 liter v8s that made 120HP and had wiring issues from factory.
Someone should start a movement: Make Appliances Great Again.
Two refrigerators for $865M? In 1972 dollars? Heck, I'll sell you THREE refrigerators for that price, guaranteed to last SIXTY years. AND, they will need LESS than five years to design, build, and deliver.
Is this the one Captain Kirk will meet in a couple hundred years?

YES. That movie actually has some great moments.
NASA delivering the worlds best tech support, at a distance of 15 billion miles 🤣
It takes the speed of light 22 hours to travel that distance
Yooo i used to research this in high school. So hyped they can still work with it.
Thats crazy that thing was launched in ‘77 before I existed. The same space probe that took the famous Pale Blue Dot 🔵 picture from 3.7 billion miles out!
Send the Voyagers an upgraded satellite , one thatll take complete takeover of the Voyagers, to full throttle its distance into space
Wow that's amazing !
I wish you guys would've done a longer piece on this...
unbelievable
Still much easier to communicate with voyager than a lousy neighbor
Glad the repair was able to be made.
This is Mrs. Cluever's (Cleaver) 5th grade class from Ridgeview Elementary in Spokane, Washington! We love watching Coy Wire and CNN 10 every morning! RISE UP Sunshine!
No they didn't. The power cycled it. They unplugged it, and plugged it back in. They didn't "repair" anything. It's still just as broke as it was when it started throwing the error codes. It's not tried to run the same routines again. They just restarting the computer and added that command to the naughty list.
Voyager 1 should be renamed the Energizer Bunny
That thing was built before i was born
what about voyager 2?
Tell us apollo never happened without telling us
I think that we should send a service craft out to it before it shuts down. It’ll be hard, but we could use a modified starship.
Its billions of miles away bro wdym
V'GER lives! 🖖
very smart Team! Go NASA!
14 BILLION MILES. not 1 FFS the news seriously is so bad
Whats in a name? Lol..
One helluva team still crushing it. 🇺🇸🤯
Ve'ga!! Or Ve'ger!!! 😅
Hurray ! 🥳🥳🥳
Eltor prie breet
Sure, believe that if you want. I lose signal at home, but billions of miles and that speed... Sure it maybe they like all the free tax money.....
It's almost like it took 5 MONTHS to get a response
Has no one read 3 Body problem? stop that thing
too late history major..
@@covenant11 not too late
An object in motion stays in motion. Nothing anyone can do about it.
Explain please
Google. "Dark Forrest Theory"
This should be used, not as an example of how important space exploration is but how useless it is.
Take into consideration the cost of these vanity projects and what little is gained. The salesmen of this nonsense will talk about all that "we " learn from it. The Space Shuttle program was over $1,000,000,000.00 and there wasn't $5 worth of knowledge gained to "help mankind".
Bruh... 50 kilobytes of functional data sent back home is definitively priceless.
@@-in-the-meantime...
Priceless? It has no value at all because it's useless information.
I'd rather us spend money on space than the Ukraine though
@@thomcarr7021dude literally the point of the VOYAGER mission was to send it as far as possible
@@thomcarr7021 Sure, let's pick on NASA; the government agency which has historically received the least amount of funding compared to other agencies.
If you actually cared about what your tax dollars are being spent on, then you wouldn't criticize NASA.
