NASA has had cosmic ambassadors carrying a message from Earth for nearly 30 years. Did you know that?

Launched in late summer 1977, the Voyager 1 and 2 space probes each carried a gold-plated phonograph record with music, images and greetings in 55 languages. NASA's official Voyager Web site offers a decent overview, but GoldenRecord.org (www.goldenrecord.org) presents an easy-to-use multimedia guide to the record, including music samples.

There's no word on what happens if the extraterrestrials that find either Voyager don't have a record player.

It's incredibly interesting to listen in to that collection or look at some of the pictures. Do it now :)

yup, knew about it, it's not that big of a secret =) although I think that sending out a record in the hope that some aliens will find it is a bit of a romantic dream...but still kinda interesting :aww:
