1. Voyager Golden Record:
Imagine a special space message from Earth, a kind of time capsule called the Voyager Golden Record.
Back in 1977, it hitched a ride on the Voyager spacecraft, carrying sounds and pictures to introduce Earth to any friendly aliens out there. It’s not your regular mixtape—it’s got everything from kids laughing to Beethoven’s tunes, greetings in lots of languages, and even a human heartbeat.
As Voyager ventures into space, this Golden Record is like our way of saying “hello” to whoever might be out there, turning our planet’s story into a melody that travels through the cosmos, making friends with the stars.
