Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>NASA announced Friday it has reestablished full communications with the Voyager 2 space probe after losing contact with the spacecraft last week.It was also revealed that due to a “one-way light time of 18.5 hours for the command to reach Voyager,” the mission controllers team waited “37 hours… to learn whether the command worked.”<\/p>\n

Successfully, at 12:29 a.m. EDT on Aug. 4, the flow of science and telemetry data streamed again, which indicated that the probe “operating normally and that it remains on its expected trajectory.”<\/p>\n

NASA said that contact with the probe was lost in late July after a series of planned commands were sent to the probe, causing the spacecraft’s antenna to point away from Earth and resulting in the loss of communications and data transmission.<\/p>\n

The agency said on August 1 that its Deep Space Network, using multiple antennas, had been able to detect a signal from the probe, which confirmed that the aircraft was operational.<\/p>\n

Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 were launched in September 1977. Both Voyagers are the farthest from Earth and the longest-operated spacecraft. Voyager 1, which is almost 15 billion miles (24 billion kilometers) from Earth now, continues to operate normally, NASA added.<\/p>\n
