Is there anyone out there?

From the beginning of time, the human race has looked to the stars and asked this
question. Today, technology makes space exploration possible and allows us to
search for an answer.

In 1977, NASA scientists launched Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. The two spacecraft
were on a mission to find out more about space and transmit the information back
to Earth. They also carried a message to inhabitants of other planets. This message
came in the form of a golden record like a time capsule.

It was difficult to decide what to put on the record. Scientists wanted it to represent
all the people, languages and species on our planet. So they included information
in writing, pictures and sounds that tell the story of planet Earth. There are
greetings in 55 languages as well as sounds like thunder, whale song and even a
mother’s kiss. There are 115 photographs and 90 minutes of music from around the
world.

Carl Sagan, a scientist on the team, said that it was like a message in a bottle from
a desert island and that it would carry something hopeful about life on our planet.
Nobody has answered the message yet, but who knows? E.T. might just be waiting
to greet our messenger.
