Voyager 1 was transmitting pictures from Jupiter and Saturn in the 1970s as it soared out of the Solar System. By the late 1990s, some of its sensors and circuits were failing. To instruct it to switch to backup components, engineers had to transmit a message over 12 billion kilometers, which was difficult but accomplished using a radio dish at the speed of light. Shannon established information theory and metrics like bits per second, but was modest about the impact and applications of his work, which underlie technologies like barcodes.
