About the Golden Record and the message from Jimmy Carter, who was president at the time of launch: go.nasa.gov/4gQfpOa
ALT The cover of the Voyager Golden Record, a circular, golden plate with various etchings. In the upper left-hand corner is an easily recognized drawing of the phonograph record and the stylus carried with it. The information in the upper right-hand portion of the cover is designed to show how pictures are to be constructed from the recorded signals. The drawing in the lower left-hand corner of the cover is the pulsar map previously sent as part of the plaques on Pioneers 10 and 11. It shows the location of the solar system with respect to 14 pulsars, whose precise periods are given. The drawing containing two circles in the lower right-hand corner is a drawing of the hydrogen atom in its two lowest states. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech
