NASA engineers have miraculously revived the Voyager 1 interstellar probe's backup thrusters — components that hadn't been used since 2004.

Engineers have mitigated an issue with Voyager 1’s thrusters, enabling the mission to stay in touch with mission controllers on Earth and send back unique data.

However, the uOne isn't shaped like a typical AUV. Its relatively short, squat body incorporates eight vectored thrusters which allow it to hover on the spot or move in any direction as needed.

NASA mission controllers raced against time to find a solution before a crucial ground-based radio used for communicating with Voyagers 1 and 2, went offline for upgrades.

The dumbbell thruster exercise is a popular full-body movement trainers use to build strength, muscle, and power. Here's how to do it.

NASA's most distant spacecraft had a critical thruster problem far from home. Fixing it required a long-distance call to overcome extreme cold and dwindling power.
