The Farthest details what it took to launch those missions, and how the probes delivered stunning images and information about planets we'd previously only seen from afar.
Both probes were tasked with exploring the outer reaches of our solar system. The items for the record, which is carried on both the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 spacecraft, were selected for NASA by a committee chaired by Carl Sagan of Cornell University. Voyager 2 was launched by NASA on August 20, 1977, followed a couple of weeks later by the launch of Voyager 1 on Sept. The Voyager Golden Record contains 116 images and a variety of sounds. Using still imagery and archival video, the film’s narrative gets a great, crucial enhancement in the presence of the original mission’s crew, whose passion for the mission is still apparent, even decades later. He also looks at doomed romance through Jack Nicholson's character in Five Easy Pieces, asking "How do you make a bad time last?" "Five Easy Pieces" is one of the best songs on an album with no bad ones, alongside "It's Over," which features Cassandra Jenkins and wonderful string arrangements, and "Bittersweet, TN," a duet with Erin Rae whose voices sounds so good with Morby's you'd think they were kin.NASA wants you to help celebrate the Voyager's 40th anniversaryįorward-looking admonitions aside, Tyson was on hand to play host to the film's premiere at the museum earlier this month. This is a Photograph is warm and wistful, melancholic but witty too, as he ruminates on mortality, memory and those whose time came early. As to the latter, at the center of the album are two tributes to Jeff Buckley who died in 1997 in Memphis, drowning in the Mississippi River: the mournful "Disappearing" and the dreamlike, harp-laden "A Coat of Butterflies," which weaves in other artists who met an untimely end. Kevin Morby has never lacked empathy, sincerity, or ambition but he has rarely sounded as inspired and dialed-in as with these 10 songs.

Merrick's vocals are similarly smouldering and cool, all perfect for the bluesy music they make that usually stays at a low simmer but occasionally rips open into a rolling boil.
It hangs in the air like cigarette smoke on the songs, pure texture at times. Whittle's guitarwork is responsible for a lot of that. I'm Not Sorry, I Was Just Being Me is absolutely swimming in atmosphere, the kind that evokes if not a gross bar than a dingy club, probably near closing time, and definitely well past when you should be out. "It's Me and You, Kid" is King Hannah in a nutshell: darkly sarcastic but utterly sincere, a great eye for details, and an even better ear for mood and atmosphere. It's a track that also serves as their origin story, detailing Merrick and guitarist Craig Whittle's first meeting, when they both worked as bartenders by night at the same watering hole. Le disque dor de Voyager (ou Voyager Golden Record) est un disque intitulé The Sounds of Earth (« Les sons de la Terre ») et embarqué dans les deux sondes spatiales Voyager, lancées en 1977, servant de « bouteille à la mer interstellaire » destinée à déventuels êtres extraterrestres.
“I thank God the day we met in the gross bar," Hannah Merrick sings on "It's Me and You, Kid," the closing track on Liverpool duo King Hannah's excellent debut album. King Hannah - I'm Not Sorry, I'm Just Being Me (City Slang)
