Voyager 1 is broken at the moment and is transmitting gibberish back to Earth. NASA thinks part of the memory has been corrupted and are working on a solution.

The power supply probably has only has a year or two to go before it, and the spacecraft, dies anyway but what a triumph the craft has been for the last half century!

Safe travels.
