The voyager 1 is into new heights as it has moved from our solar system to the interstellar space. The interesting thing is, as it was build in 1970,s it is carrying some photographs, sound and technology of the 70's which will sometimes lead the aliens a miscalculation about human.
The quipments memory is almost 2,40,000 times less than an iphone, moving at a speed of 11 miles per second, assume to have contact with earth till 2025. Confirmation from NASA came on 25 August 2012 that it left the solar system and entered the interstellar space. It is now 11,625 million miles from Earth, a fraction of its possible journey. Even if it lose contact with earth too scientist assume it will carry the gold disk which carry the image, sound and the technology... Hope the aliens got aDVD player over there. If they succeed, they will uncover 116 images and natural sounds, including surf, wind, thunder and the songs of birds and whales as well as greetings in 56 languages and printed messages from US president Jimmy Carter and then UN secretary general Kurt Waldheim. Music on the disc includes Beethoven, Mozart, Blind Willie Johnson and Chuck Berry. Carter says an the disk as: "This is a present from a small, distant world, a token of our sounds, our science, our images, our music, our thoughts and our feelings. We are attempting to survive our time so we may live into yours." Seems good and awesome... right..
