For those interested in failures and recovery in far away spacecraft, check out this thread in August, when Voyager 2 lost contact with earth due to a mispointed antenna (caused by operator error :mastodon_oops: ).

  Attached: 1 image Update on Voyager 2, which lost contact with earth on July 21 due a mispointed antenna. Voyager 2 is programmed to reset its orientation Oct 15; meanwhile, NASA is trying to make contact. On Jul 31, the DSN station in Canberra picked up a faint signal, not strong enough to decode. It shows that V2 is healthy and calling home periodically as programmed. On Aug 3, some commands were blasted out from Canberra (perhaps at higher power) in the hope that, V2 can decode it and repoint. #Voyager 1/n
