Voyager Quotes

This is a present from a small, distant world, a token of our sounds, our science, our images, our music, our thoughts and our feelings. We are attempting to survive our time so we may live into yours.

Billions of years from now our sun, then a distended red giant star, will have reduced Earth to a charred cinder.
