Golden Records

I have always been interested in the series  Ancient Aliens because there is evidence and proof of advanced technology in ancient times.








I am not saying you believe in Ancient Aliens okay? For the meantime, let us say that ancient people have the advanced technology. When, where, how, why, what happened to this technology? We do not know. As of yet. What I can deduce though is they did these writing, sculpture and art to express themselves and communicate. And to leave messages for the future. Why? Its human nature to make graffiti, create works of art and literature and to leave messages in videos, photos and so on.




The Voyager Golden Records are phonograph records that were included aboard both Voyager spacecraft launched in 1977. They contain sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life and culture on Earth, and are intended for any intelligent extraterrestrial life form, or for future humans, who may find them. Neither Voyager spacecraft is heading toward any particular star, but Voyager 1 will pass within 1.6 light-years of the star Gliese 445, currently in the constellation Camelopardalis, in about 40,000 years.[1]
The collection of images includes many photographs and diagrams both in black and white and color. The first images are of scientific interest, showing mathematical and physical quantities, the Solar System and its planets, DNA, and human anatomy and reproduction. Care was taken to include not only pictures of humanity, but also some of animals, insects, plants and landscapes. Images of humanity depict a broad range of cultures. These images show food, architecture, and humans in portraits as well as going about their day-to-day lives. Many pictures are annotated with one or more indications of scales of time, size, or mass. Some images contain indications of chemical composition. All measures used on the pictures are defined in the first few images using physical references that are likely to be consistent anywhere in the universe.
