In 1977 two Voyager probes were launched, each carrying a golden record, a compilation of images and sounds meant to represent our planet to any distant civilizations that should encounter them. It was while working on the record that Carl Sagan, the golden record’s co-creator, met and fell madly in love with his future wife Annie Druyan. The project became their love letter to humankind and to each other. This film is likewise a love letter, to Sagan and Druyan, and to the transcendence and heartache of the space age. And also to love itself, which always requires risky voyaging of one kind or another. 16 minutes from the Aeon Film archive: ow.ly/B61vR
