“My message basically emphasizes the spirit of this mission. In the 60s, when Carl Sagan , the famous astronomer, included a CD with a selection of music, images, and greetings from the planet Earth to a possible extraterrestrial civilization, twin Voyager spacecraft carried a clear message of hope and illusion to humanity in its exploration through the cosmos,” said Martínez.
NASA's twin Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft travel as time capsules . After conquering the Solar System, its four-decade technology keeps bringing surprises.
