Thanks to the twin Voyager spacecraft, music is truly universal: Each carries a Golden Record with sights, sounds and songs from Earth as it sails on through the Milky Way. Recalling the classic rock era of the late 1970s when the Voyagers launched, this poster is an homage to the missionās greatest hits. Some of the most extraordinary discoveries of the probesā first 40 years include the volcanoes on Jupiterās moon Io, the hazy nitrogen atmosphere of Saturnās moon Titan and the cold geysers on Neptuneās moon Triton. Voyager 1 is also the first spacecraft to deliver a portrait of our planets from beyond Neptune, depicting Earth as a āpale blue dot,ā as of Aug. 25, 2012, to enter interstellar space. Voyager 2 is expected to enter interstellar space in the coming years. Even after 40 years, the Voyagersā hits just keep on coming. Ā
