Farthest human-made object from Earth phones home after myterious silence

NASA's Voyager 1 probe, the most distant human-made object from Earth, has resumed transmitting usable data to mission control. The US space agency revealed on Monday that the spacecraft stopped sending comprehensible information back to Earth on November 14, 2023. However, it remained responsive to NASA's commands. A single defective chip was identified as the cause of this communication disruption in March by specialists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
