#NASA 📆 July 12, 2023 #DSS23 started in 📆 February 2021 at the Goldstone, #California, #DSN Complex (with #OpticalCommunication
capabilities, which will be critical to communicate with #astronauts 👨‍🚀👩‍🚀 traveling to #Mars 🔴). NASA cannot use #RadioFrequency 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 #optical communications (use
of light as a means of transmitting information through #lasers) https://oig.nasa.gov/docs/IG-23-016.pdf

Warum Voyager 2 nicht antworten kann. Falsch ausgerichtete Antenne der Raumsonde sendet zwei Grad an der Erde vorbei. #Voyager2 #Voyager #NASA #Raumsonde #DeepSpaceNetwork

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…

Challenges of #SpaceNavigation : If #Earth were the size of a softball, the #ISS would be orbiting just above the seams, the #Moon would be a #marble about 2 meters away, and #Mars would be 1.2 to 2.4 kilometers away. The targets are small and moving. https://timeandnavigation.si.edu/navigating-space/challenges
Chris Potts compared the target requirements of #landing the #Spirit rover inside a specific #crater on Mars 🔴 to being able to shoot a #basketball 🏀 through a hoop 9000 miles away.
Since there’s no #GPS in outer space, navigators process the radiometric tracking data received from the #DeepSpaceNetwork (#DSN) to determine the #spacecraft’s #position and velocity. They also use optical data, where the spacecraft takes a picture of the star background to help refine the spacecraft’s trajectory https://www.universetoday.com/37934/the-navigators-how-we-fly-spacecraft-around-the-solar-system

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."
