The Vinyl Frontier details the Golden Record that traveled into space on the back of NASA’s Voyager probe.

This probe contained a playlist of music, sounds and pictures that would depict Earth to any alien races it may have encountered.  Led by the great Carl Sagan, this record included a playlist with music from Beethoven, Bach, Glenn Gould as well as music from China, India, and remote cultures. President Jimmy Carter included a message of peace and instructions on how to use it if this record was found.

The Vinyl Frontier tells the whole story of the Golden Record through interviews with key players that were involved.
