About Murmurs of Earth

The Voyager Golden Record is a phonograph record included in the two Voyager spacecraft launched in 1977. It contains sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life and culture on Earth. It is intended for any intelligent extraterrestrial life form, or far future humans, that may find it. The Voyager spacecraft will take about 40,000 years to reach the distance of the star closest to our Sun called Alpha Centauri, though neither craft is travelling in the correct direction. 'Near' meaning in this case about 4.35 light-years' distance; hence, if other beings do not come in the direction of the spacecraft to meet them, it will take at least that long for the Golden Record to be found. As the probes are extremely small compared to the vastness of interstellar space, it is extraordinarily unlikely that they will ever be intercepted. If they are ever found by an alien species, it will be far in the future, but if found it is a statement of the diversity and intelligence of Earth through music, sounds, and images.
