I'm sure many here know about the issue recently NASA has had communicating with Voyager 1.
It appears they solved the problem as I read here:

I read this and thought to myself if only they were in MAME!
The team found a workaround, however: They could divide up the code into smaller parts and store them in different areas of the computer’s memory. Then, they could reprogram the section that needed fixing while ensuring that the entire system still worked cohesively.
That was a feat, because the longevity of the Voyager mission means there are no working test beds or simulators here on Earth to test the new bits of code before they are sent to the spacecraft.
Imagine Voyager 1 and 2 being emulated in MAME. LOL
There is no law in the arena
