When NASA launched the Voyager 1 & 2 spacecraft in 1977, they sent along one of the most iconic time capsules in human history: the Golden Record. π
Each Voyager carries a gold-plated copper record intended to convey the story of life on Earth to any beings who might find it among the stars. π
Whatβs on it?
πΉ 115 images of Earth, nature, humans, and science
πΉ Greetings in 55 languages from people around the world
πΉ Natural sounds, from wind and thunder to whale songs
πΉ Music from many cultures & eras
πΉ Even human sounds like footsteps, laughter, and a baby crying
The Golden Record is like a cosmic message in a bottle, a snapshot of our planetβs diversity, culture, and spirit, launched into interstellar space with hope and curiosity.
If you could send a message to aliens, what would you include β and why? Tell us in the comments! ππ¬
