The Voyager record is a message in a bottle cast into the cosmic ocean. It contains some of our thoughts and our feelings, something of the information we store in genes and brains and books. The recipients, if any, will understand the pictures and sounds incompletely at best. But one thing would be clear about us: no one sends such a message on such a journey without a positive passion for the future. For all the possible vagaries of the message, they will be sure that we were a species endowed with hope and perseverance, at least a little intelligence, and a longing to make contact with the cosmos.
