Interesting views. AS usual, the images and vice-over are often way out of sync. I was happy to hear it give credit to Harry Smith, Joe Bussard, and Carl Sagan's golden record project on Voyager, which is now in interstellar space and still reporting back to us.

For those who have not seen it, here's a 1942 RCA film called "Command Performance" showing how 78 RPM records were made:
