Humanity's most distant space probe jeopardized by computer glitch | Ars Technica

46 years old is pretty dang impressive but I was hoping they'd have solved this glitch by now. Things aren't looking good.

We really should launch some more probes out of the solar system. Build one with a thruster from Starlink, slap on a reactor and a 100 ton propellent tank, and that could rocket past Voyager 1 even without a gravity assist.
