We decoded NASA’s messages to aliens by hand

  • In 1977, twin golden records were sent into space on the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft. Still sailing through space at nearly 60,000 km per hour, the records contain sound, songs, and images from earth. But how did NASA include images on an analog record? Here, we decoded the audio, and see the images the way that aliens were intended to see them.

      Yes, cause I have always wondered with the amount of complexity in the cover, audio, and images. There’s no way aliens would understand, for example the morse code and binary, these systems are created by us for us, so aliens would definitely not understand what the lines are on the cover. Another thing is even if they do understand, the units such as minutes and hours, are both based on the Earth, something aliens don’t have so how would they understand.

      We should launch other probes that have a golden record, but rather than sending them out into interstellar space, we should put one in orbit around each planet of our solar system. That way, if aliens find our solar system long after the sun has destroyed Earth, they may find a probe near one of the surviving planets and they can be sure they found the right star.

    I think the important thing about the records isn't if they can be decoded. Let's be real, our species will be long gone when, or if, they are found. The important thing is that it demonstrates that at one point life on another world not only existed, but was smart enough to send any kind of message at all into space.
    Imagine how we would react to finding an object that was both clearly unnatural and clearly not human made. Even if we had no idea what it was. It would forever change how our species sees itself.
