It’s actually just gotten far enough that the data is being rendered at lower fidelity to save resources

They didn’t expect us to get sensors outside the heliosphere before winning the game, but players always immediately find crazy and unexpected ways to break your games

Flight data is like the log of sensor data right?

I didn’t quite read it that way, but I can see how someone could read it that way. It does really seem like the probe is having problems with its internals, less than “communication has stopped”
