NASA has finally found a Voyager 1 fix, and the most distant spacecraft from Earth is returning useable data about its onboard systems.
After five months of gibberish, Voyager 1 is finally talking to NASA again. The 46-year-old probe randomly started submitting funky data to NASA back in November, and the space agency has been looking for a Voyager 1 fix for the past several months. Now, as the spacecraft approaches a half-century in operation, NASA hopes to get it to return scientific data once again.

But NASA says its latest Voyager 1 fix, which it transmitted from Earth on April 18, reached the probe and seems to have kicked things back into the correct order, at least for now. Whether or not the fix remains working remains to be seen.
