40 year ago, NASA launched two Voyager spacecraft into deep DEEP outer space to study our solar system and in hopes that one day, aliens (or future humans) would find it. The coolest part, attached to each spacecraft is a golden-plated phonograph record that features iconic music, greetings in 52 languages, laughter, news, how life came to be and other radical things showcasing the history and culture on Earth.
Intrigued by NASA’s accomplishment, Lawrence Azerrad, David Pescovitz and Timothy Daly created Our Voyager Golden Record: 40th Anniversary Edition, as a way for humans in the now to enjoy the LP at home. We caught up with Lawrence, the graphic designer and creative director of the record, to discover the extensive journey behind this Grammy Award-winning vinyl.
