“The universe is a pretty big place. So if it’s just us, it seems like an awful waste of space.” 

– Carl Sagan

In 1977, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory launched the spacecraft Voyager 1 & 2 to explore the depths of our solar system and beyond for the first time in human history. 

On each spacecraft, Carl Sagan, Ann Druyan and a team of creatives and scientists alike placed a Golden Record that contained a mixtape of Earth’s greatest hits in the hopes that somewhere out there in the cosmos some being may find it and know they were not alone in the universe.

This is where the Voyager Dispatch Program comes in.
