Neat they did this, but the article is devoid of nearly anything technically interesting or descriptive, which is disappointing on a JPL site.

Someone thought maybe "a switch" got flipped, so they flipped it. Fascinating.


Impressive troubleshooting from 15 billion miles away. Crazy to think that Voyager 1 still has another 10 years of usefulness, according to predictions.
