Voyager 1's computer glitch garbled the science and engineering data the craft sends to Earth, which rendered it unreadable. That started on Nov. 14, 2023. How did engineers fix Voyager's problem?

NASA/JSC has a requirement for a Single Board Computer for Space with the ability to clear errors in 1mS to meet the time to first failure estimate of 3 thousand years.

For an optimisation problem involving 945 binary variables, the D-Wave X2 is up to 100 million times faster (10 8) than the same problem running on a single-core classical (conventional) computer.

The problem used to test the D-Wave computer had nearly 1,000 such variables. Martyn Williams. The D-Wave Vesuvius chip that lies at the heart of its 2X quantum computer, on show at NASA’s ...

The agency that landed the first man on the moon has a problem keeping hackers out of its Internet servers. In fact, the ability to joyride on a NASA server seems to be fairly common in the hacker ...
