This task was more difficult than I would have anticipated. In order to complete this task, I had to think like the great American astronomer Carl Sagan who was the project director for the Golden Record. As a big fan of the Cosmos series with Carl Sagan as well as the remastered version with Neil deGrasse Tyson, I appreciate the connection that we – as humans – have with the universe. Therefore, I decided it would be best to showcase a tracklist that was diverse and represented our history of existence appropriately. Furthermore, I would emphasize the importance of also keeping and including the images, sound effects, and other texts that were in the original Golden Record.
I am fascinated by the thought that there are other civilizations out there. It would be incredible if one day we discovered another Golden Record from a distant galaxy. Live long and prosper.
Funny how the beauty of a garden still wants a fairy in it. We have so much on this earth to cause us to gasp and wonder, and yet, we still reach out to the stars . . . many of my choices were yours. Megs Keating
