Actually.... most likely no, unless you fudge the system clock. Root CAs will expire, chains of trust will break and your app most likely won't run unless you very carefully design it to not have any such dependency, not even indirectly through any of the imported libraries you use. Or your browser will throw an error and refuse to start for the same reason.
But hey, maybe you won't even be able to login if you do so through a Google/Microsoft/Apple ID.
...and you use an SSD? Be amazed at how fragile they are. Chances it will be running 45 years are... not good.
- fph 2y agoThis suggests a question: how does the Voyager handle authenticating commands? Whatever crypto they had in 1977 is surely completely broken now. Security by obscurity? Or can anyone with a large enough antenna send commands to it?
- alexander2002 2y agoI need to know the answer to this also!
- xyx0826 2y agoThe Voyagers’ protocol use no encryption and the specification appears to be public. I’ve linked a PDF of what appears to contain the protocol description below. So anyone with a *large enough* antenna can talk to it. It just happens to be that the “anyone” on earth really is just NASA and its Deep Space Network. https://descanso.jpl.nasa.gov/DPSummary/Descanso4--Voyager_new.pdf https://descanso.jpl.nasa.gov/DPSummary/Descanso4--Voyager_n...
- crubier 2y agoThis is moving goalposts. Voyager doesn't need to manage Root CAs. Any JS program with the same scope as what Voyager does would be fine. Of course if it needs to connects to online services, deal with certs or other things, yes, it won't work. But neither would voyager-era software with similar requirements.
