Star Trek and The Golden Record - Offworld Episode 17 ─ Adam Savage’s Tested

(You can now enjoy Offworld as a podcast: http://www.tested.com/offworld)

Star Trek: The Motion Picture features a plot device inspired by NASA's Voyager missions, including the Golden Records that are aboard both spacecraft. Ariel is joined by David Pescovitz and astronomer Frank Drake (of the Drake equation) to talk about the film, the creation of the record, and its function in depicting human life to anyone who might find it.
