The JPL team is updating the firmware on Voyager 1 and 2 to address communication issues and prevent clogging of thruster propellant inlet tubes. Voyager 2 is being used as a testbed before applying the patches to Voyager 1, and the changes aim to reduce material build-up and ensure the spacecraft remain focused on Earth for a longer period of time. #science #space #news
