NASA revive a roll Thrusters on Voyageer 1, 47, who was believed to have died two decades ago.
According to the Space AgencyScientists at NASA, in southern California, reactivated a set of defenses on the spacecraft.
The screaming of a roll has not succeeded since 2004 and has long believed that it was outside the commission.
These defenses are important because the main defensions of Voyageer seem to have some waste that can cause them to block. Scientists estimate that these defenses can fail early in the fall of 2025.

The antenna on the ground will be responsible for sending orders to both Voyageer 1 and Voyageer 2 in non -connection mode for several months.

While upgrading this antenna, the team in NASA will not be able to communicate with dual space investigations.

These promotions are important to the moon’s future tasks.
“These antenna promotions are important in the future Lunar landing crewDod said in a press statement that some of them increase the ability of communications on our scientific tasks in the deep space, some of which depend on the discoveries that were conducted on the discoveries.
Each Voyageer has a set of primary defenses that control a movement in all directions as well as the smaller defenses of the so -called roll control.
The use of smaller defenses allows the Voyageer antenna to be aligned With the earth, so Scientists can communicate with it.

While there is a third group of defenses, which were re -displayed online in 2018 and 2019, Voyageer does not have the ability to make Roll’s adjustments to maintain contact with Earth.
If the Earth occurs to check its connection to Voyageer 1, it will be almost impossible to restore communication.

Voyageer 1 was launched in 1977 and traveled about 15 billion miles away from Explore space between stars, It is outside our solar system.
Voyageer 1 and Voyageer 2 have traveled farther than any other man -made things. Voyageer 1’s Note discoveries Include a thin loop around Jupiter, along with 2 satellites revolving around the largest planet in unprecedented solar system. It also discovered five satellites revolving around Saturn, along with an unknown ring about the giant of the gas.
