Of course they're monitoring it. Something has obviously gone wrong.

On some spacecraft, the antenna only has a limited range of movement. It might not be possible to point it towards earth when you point the engine where you want to point it. Once it is coasting, you can turn the spacecraft so the antenna points at earth again.

However, it is now way overdue.
