"An “interstellar shout” or perhaps a good ol’ Aussie “coo-ee” to #Voyager2 😁

Either way, an awesome job by the Voyager team NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and our very own CSIRO crew here at the  Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex , restoring full contact with the Voyager 2 spacecraft."

  "UPDATE, Aug. 4, 2023: NASA has reestablished full communications with Voyager 2.
  
  The agency’s Deep Space Network facility in Canberra, Australia, sent the equivalent of an interstellar “shout” more than 12.5 billion miles (19.9 billion kilometers) to Voyager 2, instructing the spacecraft to reorient itself and turn its antenna back to Earth. With a one-way light time of 18.5 hours for the command to reach Voyager, it took 37 hours for mission controllers to learn whether the command worked. At 12:29 a.m. EDT on Aug. 4, the spacecraft began returning science and telemetry data, indicating it is operating normally and that it remains on its expected trajectory."
