- Abstract
The Voyager Golden Record(s) made history as the first human messages to leave the Solar System en route to alien intelligence as a description of Earth and its inhabitants. Not only the means (a record disc) seem ancient, but most probably also the choice of the information items, tainted by 1970s politics and thinking. What would a Golden Record MK II look like? Which medium will carry the information? Which language (code) will it be written in? What are today’s societal virtues to display and vices to hide? A team of motivated interdisciplinary, intercultural, and international professionals from International Space University’s Space Studies Program 2021 will formulate and encrypt a message of humanity for 2021.
