Voyager 2, Uncoded Data Transmission

NASA reports that Voyager 2, launched in 1977, has begun transmitting data packets that cannot be decoded. The spacecraft is currently at the edge of the solar system, and the hosts speculate on whether the computer has malfunctioned or if something "on board" has changed. They suggest the data should be made open-source for public decoding efforts.
