Discover the Messages on NASA's Voyager Golden Record
Learn about the fascinating contents of NASA's Voyager Golden Record, a collection of sounds, images, and greetings sent into space for potential extraterrestrial encounters. From greetings in different languages to diverse musical compositions, explore the unique snapshot of humanity captured on this record.
We equipped the first missions beyond the Solar System with scientific instruments and messages for extraterrestrials. Pioneer 10 and 11 had plaques, while Voyager 1 and 2 carried a \"Golden Record\" with Earth's images and sounds.
The Golden Record cover includes a map of pulsars and instructions on how to play it. The collection represents our sounds, science, images, music, thoughts, and feelings.
Selected by Carl Sagan's committee, it includes greetings, everyday sounds, and music from various cultures. Notable inclusions are Chuck Berry's \"Johnny B. Goode\" and greetings in 55 languages.
Voyager 1 and 2 are far from Earth, carrying a message of unity and curiosity to potential extraterrestrial listeners.
