The agency’s Deep Space Network facility in Canberra, Australia, sent the equivalent of an interstellar “shout” more than 12.3 billion miles (19.9 billion kilometers) to Voyager 2, instructing the spacecraft to reorient itself and turn its antenna back to Earth.

so basically... "g'day mate! give it a burl and take a good squizz over here!". did I get that one right?

Token Aussie reporting in. Good effort.

Given this is was described as a shout this probably more of a 'COOOO-EEEEEEEee!'

Or maybe a 'OI OVER HERE YA CUNT', but I cant speak to the tension level at the Canberra DSC.

Well last I saw from the aussie instance they got all offended somebody used the word cunt in a post title.

I tried to find it but didn't see the post in my comment history. Just thought it was pretty ridiculous.
