Current revision
Following ground control efforts during recent weeks to partially recharge the spacecraft's batteries, SOHO successfully transmitted telemetry data to NASA's Deep Space Tracking Station at Goldstone, California. The 1-minute burst of data contained information about SOHO's temperature and the state of some of its electrical systems, damaged by the extreme cold. The data also indicated that ground control had successfully recharged one of the two batteries. The spacecraft remained in the L-1 Langrangian point in space, which is a point 1 million miles (1.6 million kilometers) away from Earth, where gravity forces are stable and "an object will not change its position relative to the Earth.
