Awesome: The Voyager Golden Records are gramophone records which were included aboard both Voyager spacecrafts, which were 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. At a distance of about 127.74 AU* from the Earth as of May 8, 2014, the Voyager 1 probe is currently the farthest human made object from Earth. * UA = Astronomical Unit = is a unit of length, roughly the distance from the Earth to the Sun. imgur/a/CvEvO
