Voyager 1 is the most distant human-made object, and it still carries the Golden Record — a time capsule containing sounds, music, images and greetings from Earth.

In this video:
- What's actually on the Golden Record
- How its pulsar map identifies the Sun's location
- Voyager 1's journey into interstellar space
- What happens after its radio signal eventually disappears
