Update on NASA losing the Voyager 2 spacecraft

Loading player...
Unfortunately, NASA has confirmed that it has lost contact with the Voyager 2 after the antenna that communicates with the spacecraft was shifted a mere 2% by flight controllers. The wrong command was sent a week ago and tilted the antenna away from Earth while the spacecraft is approximately 19-billion km away. A satellite dish in Canberra, Australia, is currently trying to track the craft, but it might be a while as signals from that far away take at least 18 hours to reach the Earth.
