Despite almost two years of silence, NASA never stopped searching for its long lost spacecraft STEREO-B.<br />Contact with the spacecraft - which works in tandem with a second spacecraft STEREO-A to study the sun - was lost in October 2014 during a test of one of its timers.<br />Scientists had been testing the timer when STEREO-B's line of sight and communication to Earth was blocked by the sun.<br />Now contact has been reestablished, the STEREO team will continue monitoring the spacecraft to see what kind of state it's in.
