That’s the NASA we’re used to seeing!

Built when NASA was all science and near zero politics.

Those people in the photo above, used to be in their 20s and 30s when the Voyager spacecraft were sent on their missions, now those people are in their 70s and 80s. ;)

Voyager 1 and 2 were intercepted by space aliens and their technology studie by those aliens, and they decided that, that tech wasn’t worth stealing, so, they allowed the voyagers to continue sending the worthless data back to Earth.

This is just incredible...
The loss of that code rendered the science and engineering data unusable. Unable to repair the chip, the team decided to place the affected code elsewhere in the FDS memory. But no single location is large enough to hold the section of code in its entirety.

So they devised a plan to divide the affected code into sections and store those sections in different places in the FDS. To make this plan work, they also needed to adjust those code sections to ensure, for example, that they all still function as a whole. Any references to the location of that code in other parts of the FDS memory needed to be updated as well.

It's incredible that they could do that at all. Equally incredible is that the team understands that ancient tech so well as to be able to devise and execute the fix.

That guy in the pink shirt looks very unhappy. Or maybe he’s overcome with emotion and is about to cry...

How does this make muslims feel good about themselves? The most important mission of NASA...

“third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math and engineering.” -Charles Bolden, NASA Administrator

Nasa talking to space craft a billion miles away, and I can’t get my cell phone to work when I want it or stop butt calling people when I don’t want it to work.
