I like how they discovered the anomaly a while back, where the voyager probes were not where they were supposed to be. Theories abounded about how the current theories on solar winds werre wrong, or there was an unseen border force slowing the craft.
Turned out the nuclear power cells were heating the leading edges of the craft a little more than the trailing ones, and that very slight radiation of energy slowed the craft enough to have physicists pulling their hair out for years. Apparently it took some deep computer modelling to figure it out.
Space.com probably has some good links on it.
