Good morning awesome people!!!! :) I hope your all having a good and wonderful day/night. I didn’t have the best sleep last night, oh well. I’m still ready for what the day may bring. Please know that your loved, and your so very much worth it. Always be kind to yourself and those around you.

Today we are going to talk about voyager one.

Did you know that Voyager 1 is the most distant human-made object in space? It was launched in 1977 and has been exploring the outer solar system and beyond for over 46 years, as of today, September 5. It carries a golden record with sounds and images of Earth, a message of peace and curiosity to any alien civilization that might encounter it. Voyager 1 is now in interstellar space, where it continues to send back data about the cosmic environment. It is truly an amazing feat of engineering and science, a testament to our human spirit of exploration and discovery. #InterstellarSpace #GoldenRecord

La plus impressionnante des sondes est sans contexte Voyager, sans doute parce qu'elle est à l'échelle 1:1. L'antenne grand gain est énorme ! Génial de voir tous les instruments et les 3 RTG.
On retrouve une réplique du Golden Record et du disque The Sounds of Earth. 28/37

I explained the joke to daughter. To demonstrate she understood, she gives me an example of real life #UDP :

the Golden Records onboard #NASA 's #Voyager missions.

We don't know if it'll be received, or when, or even if it'll be understood.

August 1977 NASA attached a golden record to the outside of the probes Voyager I & II. The record serves as “a kind of time capsule, intended to communicate a story of our world to extraterrestrials”

In 1977, I sent a letter to #CarlSagan asking about the #Voyager #GoldenRecord. In 1983, I received this reply from Pearl #Druyan (Ann Druyan's mother).

In other news this just happened. My first #goldenrecord for the #arrangements I did for Alex Christensen.

Thank you Alex for having me on board for your wonderful project!

Heads up my fellow #space nerds -- this #Voyager #GoldenRecord Box Set is back in stock after many moons! I proudly own this and can testify it is galactically magnificent.

Please join us in remembering the late astronomer and science populizer Carl Sagan, @Cornell@twitter.com professor, contributor to the US #space program & 1980s Cosmos host. He would have been 88 years old #today.
