"the issue was resolved by shifting the affected code to different locations in the memory of the probe's computers"
Amazing to think of people moving code around in the RAM of a computer system that's 15 billion miles away and hasn't been physically touched for 46 years, by using a very slow and weak radio link.
I started to try to imagine one billion miles as an understandable concept. I fully understand the number and what it signifies, but one thousand million miles is staggeringly difficult to absorb. Times that by fifteen and it becomes a pointless exercise of brain energy, and to think that in cosmological terms it's not even that far away.
