In November 2023, Nasa's Voyager 1 space probe started sending nonsensical data back to Earth after making a journey of billions of miles and travelling for nearly 50 years in space.
First launched in 1977, the spacecraft was originally on a five year mission to fly past Jupiter and Saturn but has continued to venture further into space for the past 46 years, becoming the first human-made object to leave the solar system.
As of 2023 signals from Voyager 1 typically take more than 22 hours to reach Earth, but Nasa says the probe, which is currently 15 billion miles away from our planet, has suffered a communications glitch.
Amazingly, NASA's IT team managed to work out a fix and send it across the Universe to Voyager.
