While the S-band uses less power, Voyager 1 had not used it to communicate with Earth since 1981. It uses a different frequency than the X-band transmitters signal is significantly fainter. The flight team was not certain the S-band could be detected at Earth due to the spacecraft\u2019s distance, but engineers with the Deep Space Network were able to find it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\"> NASA will not power the X-band transmitter back on until engineers can pinpoint the underlying reason behind the fault. Communications between JPL and Voyager 1, over 15 million miles away, are typically lengthy, taking almost 23 hours to send commands.
