What would you put on your own Golden Record?
NASA’s twin Voyager spacecraft launched in August and September 1977. Aboard each spacecraft is a Golden Record, a collection of sites, sounds and greetings from Earth.
If a new Golden Record were to be created, what would you include from the past 30 years?

// On the NASA Website under the heading 'Interact', I saw that they had their own blog about Voyager. I saw that this would be a really fascinating piece of information that would be on the blog. Here it was the simple question of "What would you put on your own Golden Record?" - I thought that this was a very interesting question, as it would be hard to try and not get the same answer twice or more, but to even get a variety of different answers.
It was kind of like a survey, where you could feel free to comment what you would consider putting on your own record. I thought that, that was a nice concept as it is nice to know what other people from around the world would like to put on theirs. They had a range of answers from:
// Children laughing and new born babies crying,
A graphic of the Human DNA Molecule,
Show advancements in Science and Technology,
Better photographs of the planets,
Photos of the Space Station,
3D view of the Sun,
ISS Floating over Earth,
Culture has changed,
Country flags,
The speech from Martin Luther King, "I have a dream", and many more.
