Old Drifting Spacecraft Faces a "Reboot"
NASA has recently greenlighted a private group to attempt to "reboot" a 35-year-old spacecraft currently drifting through space with no mission. The spacecraft will be swinging the closest it's been to Earth in 30 years, giving scientists a small window of time to contact the craft and get it working once more.
