Emulator Recreates Voyager 1's Flight Data System Computer

A developer has released an emulator for Voyager 1's Flight Data System (FDS) computer, enabling the historic spacecraft's original software to run on modern hardware. The project preserves the engineering of a mission launched in 1977 and offers a practical way to study and test the aging spacecraft's data processing systems. It highlights ongoing interest in the most distant human-made object.
