Comments by "H. de Jong" (@h.dejong2531) on "Something's Seriously Wrong With Voyager 1 Probe 23 Billion km Away" video.
You're comparing apples and oranges. Voyager: we know where it is. At every contact, its distance from us is measured to an accuracy of 1 meter. Its course doesn't change, so its future position is entirely predictable. Ship: if your ship has AIS, you can find it. If you can't find it, the AIS is switched off or broken. That "anonymous source at NASA" is an idiot. Look at the sky tonight. You can see satellites pass overhead. With simple tools, you can measure their speed and altitude https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zApGNHOi0s You'll find an altitude of more than 200 km and a speed of 8 km/s. There is no way to fake that. During the Apollo missions, amateur astronomers could see the CSM/LM on its way to the Moon. Every day, you benefit from data generated in space. GPS, accurate weather forecasts, TV broadcasts. There's no way to fake all that data.

That was the case a few years ago. Since then, the process for making Pu-238 has been restarted.
