📆 July 12, 2023 started in 📆 February 2021 at the Goldstone, , Complex (with
capabilities, which will be critical to communicate with 👨‍🚀👩‍🚀 traveling to 🔴). NASA cannot use communications to carry higher data rates like those required for Mars without increasing
the size of its antennas 📡 or power of its radio transmitters. Therefore, the Agency is developing communications (use
of light as a means of transmitting information through ) oig.nasa.gov/docs/IG-23-016.pd

This has been available for very long time, but I always love to see that every second we get 20 bytes (160 bits) from Voyager 1 thanks to the Deep Space Network…

Hopefully, nothing happens to Voyager 2 that requires human intervention in the near future. But we can still listen to it's signals.

"NASA will spend 11 months upgrading the only piece of its Deep Space Network that can send commands to the [Voyager 2] probe, which has crossed into interstellar space."
