Have aliens hijacked Voyager 2 spacecraft?

So reads the headline in Australia’s Daily Telegraph. Apparently, it is sending back signals which cannot be decoded by NASA boffins.
Many will believe the craft could have been hijacked by Klingons or some other intelligent life because decades of sci-fi television and films have opened their minds to all sorts of ‘possibilities’. Such is the [...]
