Nasa has picked up a "heartbeat" signal from its Voyager 2 probe after it lost contact with it billions of miles away from Earth, the space agency said.
Last month, the spacecraft - exploring the universe since 1977 - tilted its antenna to point two degrees away from Earth after a wrong command was sent.
As a result, the probe stopped receiving commands or sending data.
But on Tuesday, Nasa said a signal from Voyager 2 was picked up during a regular scan of the sky.
