In 1977 NASA sent the Voyager spacecraft to take pictures of the outer Solar System: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. But it also carried a very special piece of cargo: a phonograph record containing the sights and sounds of Earth in the hopes that an alien civilization might one day find it and learn about humanity. Speeding away at 38,600 mph, The Golden Record is the most distant man-made object in the galaxy. It's a mixtape...in interstellar space.
