Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.
-- Arthur C. Clarke
Play Under a Star Called Sun:
Play The Anglerfish Project:
If the world was ending, and you could save only one hundred and sixteen images as the final record of planet Earth, what kind of moments would you preserve?
This is an actual question NASA faced in 1977, when they decided to attach to the Voyager spacecrafts golden records encoded with a selection of photos intended to immortalize life on our fragile planet. And when I look at these pictures, which have now left our solar system and are hurtling out into the cosmic dark, I can’t get out of my head how they will probably be all that’s left of us one day. In the vacuum of space, these images could last for billions of years, outliving the earth, outliving the sun.
And though that should maybe be comforting… I think it scares me.
