After 46 years in space, Voyager 2 sent what may be its final transmission and it has left scientists deeply unsettled.
The probe, drifting more than 12 billion miles from Earth, transmitted a brief, distorted signal filled with irregular pulses and a strange pattern of repeating tones. No known malfunction. No solar interference. Just a cryptic, chilling message and then, silence.
Experts are scrambling to decode it. Some believe it could be interference from deep space. Others whisper that Voyager may have encountered something unknown in the dark beyond the heliosphere.
The spacecraft wasnโt just exploring, it was listening. And what it heardโฆ
we may never truly understand.
