Yes, cause I have always wondered with the amount of complexity in the cover, audio, and images. There’s no way aliens would understand, for example the morse code and binary, these systems are created by us for us, so aliens would definitely not understand what the lines are on the cover. Another thing is even if they do understand, the units such as minutes and hours, are both based on the Earth, something aliens don’t have so how would they understand.
@@thomaslok5808 Aliens being able to understand binary is just pure hope. But seconds, minutes, days or even years are taught by hydrogens movement which is the most common element in space.
@@teomandemir8918 That is true, but my point is that the idea of seconds, hours, days and years are all arbitrary. An alien year could be a thousand times longer than one Earth year, and one alien day could be 10 times longer than Earth day. So there is no way they would know what we are talking about.

Imagine in the future if the aliens that found the record managed to decode it, and when they arrive to our system, the sun would already be a red giant and the earth was eaten by it, that will be depressing.
We should launch other probes that have a golden record, but rather than sending them out into interstellar space, we should put one in orbit around each planet of our solar system. That way, if aliens find our solar system long after the sun has destroyed Earth, they may find a probe near one of the surviving planets and they can be sure they found the right star.
@@magneticman245Jupiter might be the best. Since The Sun is going to be a white dwarf Neptune and Uranus might be too risky since they may leave the solar system.

Honestly, if they find out what it is, I doubt it would be sold. If their civilisation is similar to ours, it will be researched throuroughly, maybe even crowdsourced. And if it were to be sold, I don't think the value would come from the materials.
I wonder if aliens would even have the concept of music as we know it, or if they would think our Golden Record is just a collection of strange noises.
if their smart enough to decode the record then their probably smart enough to deduce that the main band of frequency are the hearing range of the species that made it. and just like we do with whale calls they could distort it into a range that fits their hearing better.
@@coconut7630 On the cover there is a scheme of the record player, suggesting the spiral track and the pick-up. If I were an alien I would examine the plate with microscope, and the groove will be seen. Maybe aliens will examine that with laser or electron microscope, then they're expected to process the réseau manually.

@@doges_6864 Then they won't find the record. It's as simple as that.

If there are animal -like aliens out there, this record is not for them.
Imagine if aliens found this and they said, "its another one of those insects trying to talk to us, just throw it in the pile of discs from the insects"

@Heavy Weight Using proportions on Earth, no matter how big the universe is, 99.9999% of aliens would be dumber than us. Nonetheless their is probably some out there that are smarter than us.
When I was in high school, my physics teacher told me that he wouldn’t be surprised that if one day we developed a telescope that could see far enough into the universe only for us to find ourselves staring back into it. I think about that a lot.
Interpreting the drawings and decoding the disk knowing already how it was made is a pretty easy and straight-forwatd job. Whoever or whatever finds it might have different concepts that don't match the authors' ideas.
@@wanyekest3253 You're underestimating how universal this type of simple math is. Excel is just software to plot data points. Graphs are just what we humans use to represent that data. They could use something completely different but it would still depict the same idea.
Not exactly impossible either. While it's almost certain that intelligent life will evolve eye like organs that gain info by absorbing light (it is a result of something essential to life), it's not certain that they will use sound to gain info like animals on Earth.
Imagine it in reverse, a golden record game from space with information about another species and a load of strange sounds and languages. We'd freak the hell out
@@SauronTheDarkLordOfMordor No the whole decode thinking is just intelligent thinking. For one if a alien species was to find the voyager, they would already know it is coming from an alien race compared to them. So they will have at least 2 thought processes. One is to figure out its purpose, i.e. decode it. Two is to figure out where it came from, i.e. decode it. Either way they will decode it. The only way I can think of that they wouldn't attempt that is if it was to crash land on a planet many thousands or millions of years later, in which case it would be completely destroyed anyway, so nothing to decode. That or they wouldn't attempt to decode it if they were not intelligent enough to understand its alien origin. Regardless, hopefully they wont be the type to decode it and find a planet ripe for colonization.

So we sent aliens the road map to unpack our resources, wildlife, how the most intelligent species thinks and all weaknesses…. But hey, at least we said greetings in all languages!

I'd love to see the reaction to an Alien figuring this out. Imagine, finding a shiny disc, with symbols on floating in space. With it literally made from living creatures on a random planet.
So... In order to receive this message, aliens have to use a device very specific to humans with a setting explained in a way that not even the average human can understand... And this was made by the same guys that are clever enough to put a man on the moon with a computer with the processing power of an old MP3 player... Something is quite not right...

@@VascoCC95 .., You know everything in the universe radiates waves right, which makes it the highest probability of thing that any creature can sense and analyze.

Imagine gold is extremely rare in their civilization and by sending the disc, we single-handedly crash an alien economy.
the most human thing we would ever have done
We already crash our own economies. What's the economy of an alien civilization or two?
I've read a comic with aliens that live in a sort of water planet, and their most rare item is "Pulasti" or plastic lol
BOOM, GOLD BOMB
Honestly, if they find out what it is, I doubt it would be sold. If their civilisation is similar to ours, it will be researched throuroughly, maybe even crowdsourced.
And if it were to be sold, I don't think the value would come from the materials.
I wonder if aliens would even have the concept of music as we know it, or if they would think our Golden Record is just a collection of strange noises.
if their smart enough to decode the record then their probably smart enough to deduce that the main band of frequency are the hearing range of the species that made it. and just like we do with whale calls they could distort it into a range that fits their hearing better.
@@SpottedHares If they have hearing.
if there is a record player
@@coconut7630 On the cover there is a scheme of the record player, suggesting the spiral track and the pick-up. If I were an alien I would examine the plate with microscope, and the groove will be seen. Maybe aliens will examine that with laser or electron microscope, then they're expected to process the réseau manually. (Or aristally :-) ) If the aliens are 400 yards long and live under the mud then the connection of these two civilizations will be failed.

If they are smart enough to know it is a record, then they are smart enough to know it is outdated.
What if the aliens are simple that just act like animals eat, kill, sleep and dont ride Spaceships *it is possible*
@@doges_6864 Then they won't find the record. It's as simple as that. The record is meant to be found by an intelligent specie more advanced than we are today , because there's such a slim chance of the record ending up on a planet, so the aliens are supposed to find it in interstellar space. If there are animal -like aliens out there, this record is not for them.
Imagine if aliens found this and they said, "its another one of those insects trying to talk to us, just throw it in the pile of discs from the insects"
I have no doubt that if aliens (the smart ones) actually made contact with us, it will end just like Christopher Columbus. Or at the most, they will think of us like animals or insects.

The voyager is so.... human. The whole decode thinking is so human
@@SauronTheDarkLordOfMordor No the whole decode thinking is just intelligent thinking. For one if a alien species was to find the voyager, they would already know it is coming from an alien race compared to them. So they will have at least 2 thought processes. One is to figure out its purpose, i.e. decode it. Two is to figure out where it came from, i.e. decode it. Either way they will decode it. The only way I can think of that they wouldn't attempt that is if it was to crash land on a planet many thousands or millions of years later, in which case it would be completely destroyed anyway, so nothing to decode. That or they wouldn't attempt to decode it if they were not intelligent enough to understand its alien origin. Regardless, hopefully they wont be the type to decode it and find a planet ripe for colonization.
@@ISometimesAgree I mean I agree with you but.... the whole intelligence thing..... maybe they are intelligent but still don't know how to decode it or what decoding is. Maybe everything is completely different there and they think differently. That is what I mean with everything being very human.
