Next hardware reset and automatic reorientation for Voyager 2 is October 15th. Yes the device automatically resets itself about four to five times a year. Communications are expected to be reestablished then.
In the meantime, they’re going to shout at it.
That’s great to know. This post made me weirdly depressed and was a bad way to start the morning lol.
That’s good news! I was about to ask whether they have some absolute software recovery procedure and glad they do!
Almost like real engineers planned for such an event!
Someone ran ‘systemctl restart networking’ while SSH’d into the probe.
Unrelated but I’ve been wondering this for years: What’s your avatar from and why do so many people across the web have that exact same one?
No idea, I found it somewhere a decade ago and have been using it. I think I’ve only seen someone with it like one other time. 🤷🏻♂️
I remember it used to be popular in gaming groups and some music around 2008-2012 and a lot of variations of the same gas mask character were made
The guy I know who uses gasmasks everywhere does it because it’s a fetish.
Wikipedia states: “In July 2023, communication with Voyager 2 was lost when flight control pointed its antenna away from Earth, moving it by 2 degrees away from Earth. The NASA dish antenna in Canberra is being used to search for the space probe and will be used to saturate its location with commands to re-align the probe’s antenna in an attempt to re-establish the radio link. If NASA fails to contact the probe, it is expected that an automatic system on Voyager 2 will direct its dish toward Earth in October 2023.”
So essentially someone probably wanted to move it one way and it moved the other. It should automatically reposition itself in contact with NASA in 2 months. It’s amazing the foresight we had in 1977 to write in all sorts of catch-alls… In 2 months we’ll get back in contact with the probe and it will have its own place, hanging out with aliens.
Great that they included these automatic hardware resets. Way to go if your computer will never see a human or human-made thing ever again
V2 be like: “WHAT did you say about my mother? F… you, Earth man.”
Mission control: “Dude you don’t have a mother it was a typo. Dude. Talk to me.”
seenMission control: “Dude.”
seenMission control: “C’mon man.”

Sounds like it’s a recoverable error (if the scientists can’t do it the spacecraft has an automated process that’ll kick in in October.) Still, I can’t imagine what that must feel like.

Probably a lot like the person responsible for dropping the NOAA-19 satellite.
I imagine they feel bad. Not really bad, like a loved one died, but pretty bad, like a passion they worked really hard for just fizzled out.
That’s why your color your production windows red.
When you ufw enable but forgot to whitelist port 22

Probably played with the firewall settings and accidentally disabled port 22… It sucked when I did that
There’s no going into the office to fix this one…
Looks like someone removed the ssh keys
Hello IT, have you tried turning it off and on again?
sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /starman is not in the sudoers file.
This incident will be reported.Oh no, Linus Torvalds is gonna call me again
Linus calling you to belittle your management of the sudoers file is the FOSS form of swatting lol.
Removed by mod
sudo rm -rf i_want_to_delete_everything_in_this_folder /*oops…

Tfw you conf t and shut a management port down on accident and don’t have a backup console connection
