NASA once reactivated Voyager 1 thrusters that had been unused for 37 years, sending commands across interstellar space to machinery built before many of the engineers operating it were born
On 28 November 2017, engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory sent Voyager 1 a command to fire four thrusters that had been silent since November 1980.

The two Voyagers left the Sun's bubble six years apart, in different directions and at opposite ends of the solar cycle, yet found its edge at nearly the same distance. Scientists are not sure why.
