Voyagers' Golden Records The "Pioneer Plaque" "... the initial suggestion to include some message aboard Pioneer 10 was made by Eric Burgess and Richard Hoagland ..." -- Carl Sagan, SCIENCE, 175 (1972) 881. Image courtesy of Richard Hoagland's Enterprise Mission http://www.enterprisemission.com Along with Pioneer 10 and Pioneer 11, the two Voyager Space Probes are rapidly leaving the Solar System and heading out to interstellar space. With these four spacecraft, mankind has finally thrown something up that will never come down. Being humanity's first physical emissaries to the stars, NASA saw fit provide these four probes with messages from humanity to whomever or whatever may find these artifacts among the stars. If, millions of years from now, some alien civilization discovers one of our probes, the basic identity and location the machine's creators should be deducible. The Pioneer spacecraft were equipped with gold-anodized, aluminum plaques. The plaques were designed by Dr. Carl Sagan and Dr. Frank Drake and drawn by Dr. Sagan's wife Linda Sagan. The Pioneer plaques used the hydrogen atom as a basis for describing the location of our solar system in the Milky Way and the relative locations of the planets in our solar system. Additionally, the plaques contained a picture of a man and a woman, and indicated the location of their home, Earth, in our solar system (from "A Message from Earth" by Carl Sagan, Linda Salzman Sagan, and Frank Drake, available at http://www.enterprisemission.com/pioneer.html
