“In those days, everyone I dealt with was optimistic and thought that aliens would be friendly, — quotes the words of Drake, his daughter Nadia. — No one thought, even for a few seconds, whether it be a dangerous idea”.
What Drake proposed to use to produce maps indicating the location of the Sun, the distance between a star and a pulsar. The map was placed on the records of the Pioneer and Voyager missions.
According to Drake, in 1970-e years scientists did not know how great is the number of Earth-like planets in the milky Way. On the other hand, the probability that Voyager will be noticed by aliens, scientist suggests extremely low, since the devices not aimed at the coming stars, and just “go where you’re going.”
Station Voyager 1 launched September 5, 1977, the mission of Voyager 2 was launched August 20, 1977. To date, Voyager 1 has left the planet at a distance of about 21 billion kilometers. After 40 thousand years after, when the station will cease to function, it will be at a distance of 1.6 light years of the star Gliese 445, located in the constellation of the Giraffe. To date, Voyager 2 is at a distance of about 17 billion kilometers from Earth. After 40 thousand years, the machine will fly past the star Ross 248 at a distance of 1.7 light years.
