The radio show science friday (essential for science lovers) wants to return to this idea with an album full of 21st century sounds. What songs and messages should be yes or yes on this gramophone vinyl?
"The gold record is an interstellar greeting and a time capsule" , that's how they define it from this crazy project of the radio program, with the aim that this disc is found by some kind of extraterrestrial life or of a human from the future?
